I am Using will\_paginate plugin in a call like :

@homes = Home.paginate(:all, :conditions =\> conditions…

How can I have few additional values calculated in my sql search, like  
minimum and maximum price, out of all @homes that satisfy certain  
conditions efficiently?  
The above @homes variable only contains partial collection of Home  
objects.

Ruby is not Rails. Many or most people on this mailing list have no  
interest in Rails.

So please post your question in a Rails forum, or even better, a forum  
specific to the particular plugin you’re using.
