Hi,

I have a form like this.

\<% form\_for(@search) do |f| %\>  
\<%= f.error\_messages %\>

\<%= f.label :country %\>  
 \<%= f.text\_field :country %\>

\<%= f.label :city %\>  
 \<%= f.text\_field :city %\>

\<%= f.submit 'Search' %\>

\<% end %\>

When a user is login i want to store the searches of the form. So the  
user view recent searches.

Someone ideas/tips?

Grtz…remco

“saving data in a database” is pretty basic Rails. 🙂

Perhaps you could pose a more specific question?

When a (login) user searches for a country or city and get the results,  
i want to store the user search-query in the database. The user can view  
their recent searches…if they are login…

OK, sounds pretty straightforward.

User, Search, user has\_many searches – what’s the issue?
