similar to: Unobtrusive javascript...what if?

I made a brief post on here the other day about this and now I can proudly present the initial release of our unobtrusive_javascript plugin for Rails. We''ll be working with Dan Webb of Vivabit to roll in much of the functionality in his own as-yet unreleased unobtrusive_javascript plugin into a single plugin. This is essentially a preview release and probably not suitable for use on a

Dan Webb (http://www.vivabit.com) and I are happy to announce the latest release of the Unobtrusive Javascript plugin for Rails. This release packs in lots of cool new features, a few changes to old ones and some performance enhancements. Now you can write your behaviours in Ruby, attach behaviours directly to elements using content_tag and apply behaviours to elements without HTML IDs.

assert_tag smells bad. Hpricot smells nice (apricotty!). Testing your views with Hpricot: http://www.lukeredpath.co.uk/index.php/2006/07/07/testing-your-rails- views-with-hpricot/ Big thanks to _why for a great little library! Feedback is appreciated. rSpec integration coming soon (hopefully!). Cheers, Luke Redpath contact@lukeredpath.co.uk -------------- next part -------------- An HTML

Since upgrading to 1.1.3 on our dev box, we''ve started to see random routing errors with our apps running under Mongrel in production mode. The errors seem to go away after a while but come back everytime we restart the server. This may be a mongrel problem, it may be a rails problem (I''ve posted a bug on the trac) and I was wondering if anybody else had had similar

Hello! I just read DHH''s presentation pdf. In his examples, he wrote PeopleController instead of PersonController. I''ve been using singular words in controller''s name. Which is more common? Thanks. Sam -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I downloaded the unobtrusive_javascript pluing from this link (http://www.lukeredpath.co.uk/index.php/2006/06/06/introducing-unobtrusive-javascript-for-rails/) since I needed to have dynamic content in javascript (for a pop-up menu). Unfortunately I have been unable to make the plugin work. I followed the instructions on the website, but for some reason the javascript doesn?t work (for

This is the first release of a new Ruby library for the www.bulksms.co.ukAPI which should allow simple integration of SMS functionality into your Ruby or Rails apps. Sending a message is as simple as: @service = Service.new(''username'', ''password'') @service.send_message(''This is my message!'', ''4479123456789'') # whats my

You could also try to go with the button element since it can wrap content like images. Something like: <button name="delete"><img src="..."></button> along with some styling to your liking. -Tobias -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: rubyonrails-spinoffs-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org [mailto:rubyonrails-spinoffs@googlegroups.com] På vegne af

I''m attempting to deploy a rails application using switchtower. My IT guys are refusing to give me sudo for a user changeable script. I really can''t argue with their logic. If I have sudo for a script that I can update, well, I can do most anything I want. They are suggesting I create a cgi that performs the same function. Since the cgi would run as www-data (this is a debian

i have a Project model, which belongs_to :user when i add a project, the users_id is based on the session[:users_id]. to get the users_id into the projects table, i''m doing this: @project = Project.new(params[:project]) @project.users_id = session[:users_id] this is working, i''m just verifying this is the best way to do it.

Random question: I''ve written a method for the String class that turns an arbitrary line of text in to an identifier, e.g.: "My, what a beautiful day!" => "my_what_a_beautiful_day" "(anb*#NF(AMNV" => "anb_NF_AMNV" We''ve got all these great names already like underscore, classify, titleize and things like that. I''d

Hello, I am looking for a user test automation tool. When I say ''user'', I mean it should mimic the user interacting with the app. That ultimately boils down to a tool that drives a browser or is able to make http requests and allow us to deal easily with the responses. Our requirements are to be able to write the tests in Ruby (no need to switch to other language for test

Don''t get me wrong, JavaScript/Ajax helpers in Rails are a huge timesaver and they have helped me to finally overcome my irrational aversion to js libraries like prototype and such. However, all this goodness seems to come at quiet a price. The resulting code is littered with inline JS, including ubiquitous script tags and onload attributes etc.. It seems that just when i found

This has been my little experiment for the last few weeks. I jumped straight into rails after a few tutorials and have been using "Agile Web Development with Rails" as a reference. I picked up the Ruby syntax from examples which was not hard to do as I know various other languages. I''ve started 3 database driven web apps and all was going really well. Rails is fun and

There is a solution to use helpers from controllers ? I have an error : |undefined method `content_tag''| class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base def test return content_tag("a","test") end end

Yes, I believe it is and I think it is dangerous, and confusing to people new to the concepts of testing. I''ve mentioned a point similar to this on here before, but with the announcement of Rails "integration" test, I''m worried that somebody somewhere is getting their types of tests worryingly mixed up. Lets start with what we had in the beginning...unit tests (for

I''ve recently upgraded to the latest versions of Mocha and RSpec (0.3.2 and 0.6.3 respectively) and I''m no longer able to use Mocha/ Stubba with RSpec. Its actually only Stubba I''m interested in as I use RSpec''s built-in mocking library. I require stubba in my spec file but whenever I try and run my spec it fails with the error: Unintialized constant

Is there an easy way to spec that a controller should include helpers other than its own? I was thinking I could just spec responds_to for methods I''m interested in in the view, but that seems like crossing a separation boundary, that the controller maybe doesn''t need to know about? Thanks, Steve

I just coded an unobtrusive In Place Editor and wanted to get some review and comments for it. Anyone spot anything obvious that I could do to streamline this? Thanks, Walter <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> var rightClick = function(e){ Event.stop(e); var editListing = new Ajax.InPlaceEditor("listing_body",
