ERb on he command line re: Ruby For Rails book
Hi,
I am working thru the Ruby for rails book. On page 30 David Black
talks about running erb from the command line i.e. $ erb erbdemo.rb
just as you would a normal ruby prog ($ ruby erbdemo.rb) but when I
try to do this I get command not found. How do I make this work? I am
running Linux (Ubuntu Breezy)
Regards,
Paul

How to render from with <%%> ?
I have a loop that I iterate through in my view.
<%
coll.each do |itm|
puts(itm.value)
end
%>
How do I render the itm.value without using a <%= %> tag? Should puts
not work?
Joerg
P.S. There is a good enough reason for me wanting to do this :-)

has_many brings back ''uninitialized constant''
hello. first things first - I am new to ruby on rails (ruby, too), so
I''m figuring this is just a basic newbie error.

relationship:
photos:
- id (set up as PK)
- title
- shutter
- aperture
- date
- the_order
...etc
photo_comments:
- id (set up as a PK)
- photos_id (set up as a FK)
- author
- date

Accessing ''many'' variables
Hi,
I have a class called Outlet which has_many Jacks. Apart from internal
id, each jack is unique by the attribute ''color''.
I''d like to iterate through each Outlet, and be able to output data
for a Jack of a certain color.
Say, I want to access the orange jack for the current outlet:
<td><%=h outlet.jack.color[''O''].ip_address

Passing function names from string variables
This may be a more generic Ruby question, so I''m going to ask on the Ruby
forum, but I''m trying to figure out if there is a way to pass in the string
value of a variable as the name of a method.
For example, I would like to do something like:
def sort_obj_by_uid(objects,@attr)
@tmparray = Array.new
@tmphash = Hash.new
for object in @objects

Question about Associations
Hi all. Got a stupid-simple question about associations. I have two
models - school and course. There are a fixed number of schools (set
up in the migration). Each course is assigned a school and a school
will be associated with multiple courses...
How do I set up the associations? Do (can) I have School :has_one
:course and Course :has_many :schools?
Does the schools table then get a course_id

Ruby on Rails: Up and Running
hello,
On page 49 of the beta version of Ruby on Rails: Up and Running, the
book suggests to download a zip file containing everything that has been
done up to that point, and a create_tables_with_data.sql file. The book
doesn''t have the link, and I couldn''t find it in the book site. Does
anyone know where to get the files?
This is a very good book.
Thanks.

Set instance variable for all actions in the Controller
Can I set an application wide instance variable that is available for all
actions...and their views?
eg.
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
@current_user = User.find(session[:user_id])
end
and everywhere I can call @current_user.id and I can get that object? Even
down in the views?
I could not get this to work...
Thanks in advance,
