similar to: Rails versus PHP in complex HTML/CSS

Hi everyone, coming from PHP something in the .rhtml files has been confusing the heck out of me. Why does this work? <% for header in @all_headers %> <%= header.subject %> <% end %> and both of these don''t work <% for header in @all_headers puts header.subject end %> --------------------------------------- <%= for header in @all_headers puts

Hi community, as I''m a previous PHP and especially symfony programmer, I often try to find features of symfony in rails. Now I''m looking for a method which forwards to a 404 error page (but with stack trace and so on in development mode).

Hi, I''d like to make the :confirm option in my link_to/button_to erb elements conditional. So, if the page is in some state, no confirmation is requested, but not otherwise, etc. So far, my only (ugly) approach is to replace the linker html itself depending on changes in state, but I believe there must be an easier way to ''toggle'' the confirmation option on/off. Can

Hi all I''m using RESTful routes combined with the to_csv plugin and would like to know if there''s a nicer way of generating a link to fetch the CSV file than just making a hard link. This is what I use for the moment (and it works btw): <%= link_to("Export as CSV","/companies.csv") -%> I would expect the link helper to have something like

Hi, I want to have a page in my Ruby on Rails application that is like a dynamic / updateable data grid. Like a matrix or spreadsheet segment (x rows, y columns) which one can click in any of the cells and make an update, which triggers some AJAX code to fire off the update, and then the responses come back and update whatever else needs updating based on this change. Is there a prototype

I''ve have a very tight schedule project that MUST (not my option), be developed in PHP. Is there a Rails based framework for this platform? I like the Rails way of things, but in this case, I cannot choose the programming language, so please don''t offend me :-) Thanks in advance, Alessandro _______________________________________________ Rails mailing list

I''m an experienced PHP programmer (don''t know Ruby yet), and I''m playing around with Symfony (PHP MVC framework similar to Rails) and I found myself asking if there''s really any reason to use it over Rails. From what I''ve seen just about every feature in Rails is superior except one very important thing - Symfony''s admin generator. This is

Does anyone know, how I can enhance this problem? thanks a lot... -- Posted

I had to make my own pagination class in SQL Server. What I am wondering is where is a good place to put the code so that every controller and template can have access to it ? Right now I have put it in application.rb, the controller base class. This seems to work well, I did a project last summer where I put stuff in the lib directory. The only problem with that is that if you change any code at

Hi. I wonder if it is possible to use more complex data structures in templates than simple variables and arrays? I have been trying nested arrays, as well as nested arrays and hashes, but nothing seems to work (more specifically, nested arrays seem to be flattened into a single array). Having only simple variables and arrays is a little limiting. Something like the Perl-based Template Toolkit

Hi guys, I''m part way through a RoR application, for some reason whenever I add new controllers (using scaffold) I get an uninitialized constant [name of controller] error. The first few controllers work fine, the only thing I can see that I''ve changed is the layout file (but scaffold creates a new layout for each controller so can''t see that being the problem). You
