Storing multiple of the same object from a request

Ruby
1

Hi,

I have this form …

<% for i in 1 … 5 %>

<%= text_field("ec_line_item", "prescription_number", "index" => i) %> <%= text_field("ec_line_item", "description", "index" => i) %>
Prescription Number Description
<% end %>

Now on my controller end I would like to save the objects (each object
is of class “ec_line_item” with attributes “prescription_number” and
“description”) but only if the prescription_number attribute is not
empty. What’s the most efficient way of doing this?

Thanks, - Dave

First, this is really a question for the rails group.
