Searching a database

Rails
1

If I have a list of items, how can I search some item in the list, by
some criteria or something else?

2

What class is this list you are refering to? If it is a result set
from a ActiveRecord find call try this:

jobs = Job.find :all
big_jobs = jobs.find{|job| job.total_sale > 100000 }

Hope this helps,
Zack

Well, since it will be my first comercial app using rails, I will go
slow, so i’ll keep it ActiveRecord.

Yes I agree, but we will go slow, first build something that I can use
internally at the office, like some kind of blog and/or wiki and then go
for the top of the pyramid, when I have a solid ground.
