I didn't think of checking the log, very useful tip!
I need to use the incident_id that's being passed to find the timesheet.

I tried:
@timesheet = Incident.find(params[:id]).timesheet

"Couldn't find Incident without an ID".

I checked by hardcoding it:
@timesheet = Incident.find(1).timesheet

That did work, so it must be params[:id] that's not working. The log
says that incident_id is being passed as a param though.

Started GET "/incidents/1/timesheet" for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-12-14
12:33:48 -0500
Processing by TimesheetsController#show as HTML
Parameters: {"incident_id"=>"1"}
