But now i'm confused why my code worked after removing the outside parenthesis. when i type this: if FieldTypes.key? field && FieldTypes[field].respond_to? :select shouldn't ruby be seeing this? if (FieldTypes.key? field && FieldTypes[field].respond_to?) :select which is still a syntax error? Am i calculating what i think i'm calculating? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
