I have a Person model and an Address Model:

class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_one :address
  accepts_nested_attributes_for :address
end


class Address < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :person
end

In my people controller I have @person.build_address in my new action. My forms builds correctly. The problem is that when I submit the form, a person record and an address record is created but they aren't linked via the address_id column in the Person table.

Am I missing a step in the controller?

Thanks!

New Action UPDATE

def new
    @person = Person.new
    @person.build_address

    respond_to do |format|
      format.html # new.html.erb
      format.xml  { render :xml => @person }
    end
  end

Form Code UPDATE

<%= form_for(@person) do |f| %>
  <% if @person.errors.any? %>
    <div id="error_explanation">
      <h2><%= pluralize(@person.errors.count, "error") %> prohibited this person from being saved:</h2>

      <ul>
      <% @person.errors.full_messages.each do |msg| %>
        <li><%= msg %></li>
      <% end %>
      </ul>
    </div>
  <% end %>
