Response to: "Showing recipes in a category" code
Not sure why there's a ? in there, as I copy and pasted from something I said on IRC :-) But anyway it should be something like: @recipes = Category.find(@params['category']?).recipes

Showing messages 1 through 3 of 3.

  Okay, I guess this system puts in random question marks for some reason. Sorry folks :)

  Can this technique be adapted... say I wanted to list all recipies but sort them alphabetically by category. Is there a neat way to do this?

  Well, one way to do it would be to explicitly specify the SQL and use ORDER BY to do the sorting. Something like this:
  
  @recipes = Recipe.find_by_sql("SELECT * FROM recipies ORDER BY category_id")
