Ruby on Rails

Fred,

Thanks for the recommendation. I added the code below to my comments
controller:

def create
@post = Post.find(params[:post_id])
@comment = @post.comments.create!(params[:comment])
respond_to do |format|
if @comment.create(params[:comment])
format.html { redirect_to(@post) }
format.xml { render :xml => @post, :status => :created,
:location => @post }
else
format.html { render :action => "new" }
format.xml { render :xml => @post.errors, :status =>
:unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end

I'm still not getting the errors to show up in red on the form. This is
a comment form within the post "show" view, which might be different?
The errors show in red when I'm creating a new game, but I get the
runtime error when making a new invalid comment.

Thanks!
