Hallo zusammen, dann will ich mal wieder ein bi?chen Schwung auf die RoR-Liste bringen: Schildert doch einfach mal eure Erfahrungen mit Tools rund um Rails, also zum Beispiel Capistrano (formerly known as Switchtower), RadRails etc. Welche Plugins setzt ihr ein, von welchen w?rdet ihr abraten? Oder folgt ihr dem Tenor "Reuse is overrated" und schreibt euch die Sachen lieber neu? --

Hi, Sebastian Kanthak of the file_column-Plugin wrote once: "is the photo object inside a local variable or an instance variable (e.g. photo or @photo)? url_for_file_column only works with instance variables, like all other active record form helpers. Could this be the problem?" So I''m using file_column in a partial, e.g. <%= render (:partial => "product",

Hi, I just found a patch about importing a csv file in a migration: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/5293 This feature would be great, but the patch seems to sleep :( Perhaps anyone could attend to this patch?

I''m trying to build a page similar to a delicious page that is a listing of your bookmarks in this format: 1.

Howdy folks, As I was putting together a rough form for a rails app, I got to thinking how much smoother (in my siytuation) a little calendar widget would be than the default date picker selects. Does anyone know if such a thing exists ? I suspect it would have to be somewhat designed with rails in mind to populate the right kind of post params for convenient use at the controller end.

Hi all, I just finished building a CMS (open source, MIT license, same as RoR) that is aimed at people with portfolios: graphic designers, photographers, web developers, etc. Since this fits the Rails demographic well, and I plan to continue actively developing the project, I expect it to be a hit. Some features: * 100% semantic XHTML * Built on Ruby on Rails * AJAXified administration *

There a few php solutions that I would like to integrate with my Rails app. Namely PHPBB(No offense RForum) and WordPress. Is it possible to use these in a Rails environment, and what kind of issues/stumbling blocks would I face if I attempted to? Thanks, James -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi I''m trying to use german characters on a ruby on rails application, but for get ? on dropwdown menus. The database, tables and fields are encoded utf8_general_ci. I have this in my application controller: class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base before_filter :set_charset before_filter :configure_charsets def set_charset @headers["Content-Type"] =

Wondering if I can get some feedback as to the best approach to handling the following issue: - you have 300 items and pagination is set to 10 items per page - you are on page 10 and call the show action - you then click back and it calls list on the controller - the pagination starts again on page 1 Are people use hidden form fields, then passing the page number to the show, edit actions?

Hi, please have a look at http://www2.jeffcroft.com/2006/may/02/django-non-programmers/ especially the screenshot in the middle with the Calender. Instead of 3 selectfields with day, month, year I find this one much more userfriendly, also having yesterday, today and tomorrow. Are there plugins for this? I know http://www.dynarch.com/projects/calendar/ which I often included in my php-sites, and

Hi: I love Locomotive and use it exclusively for my rails projects. I''d like to install GRUFF and give it a try (a graph image creation package). I know I can do sudo gem install gruff from the command line for normal ruby and rails. How do I make gems available to Locomotive? bruce

I got an idea less than two weeks ago and now as a testament to the power of Rails I have released the first initial beta version of SoapBx, with less than 20 hours of programming involved so far. SoapBX is an application to create css based presentations and uses Erik Meyer''s cool S5 css and js code: http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/ With SoapBX you can use basic Textile and a

S5 - http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/ - is an html-based slide-show system. It produces professional-looking slideshows from text with a little xml markup. Has anyone tried using Markdown to generate S5 slide-shows? I think this would be a pretty neat system. I'm thinking a level-1 header could be the slideshow title, and level-2 headers could define individual slides. Any thoughts? - Dan

I''ve recently made a first release of what I''m calling "bundled_resource" which is a plugin that makes our lives *much* easier when we need to use javascripts, stylesheets and images in conjunction with one another to deliver a special effect or tool on the client (browser) side. If you missed the release, read about it on my blog at

This is probably me having an issue with the mvc way of living.. .I''m used to perl/php scripting... I''ve got a photo blog I''m making... and in past iterations of this website, I''d just name the photos after the id of the entry. For instance: /photos/id.jpg /photos/id_thumb.jpg However, I''m having trouble finding an easy way to do this with rails.

This is a followup to a recent post on using atop() to obtain multiline expressions. My reading of the plotmath docs makes it clear that issuing (in base graphics) the specification par(cex = 2) doubles symbols and regular text in subsequent plotmath expressions. However, it is unclear to me what specifying cex _within_ the annotation function using plotmath should do, and the following seems

I''ve been working on an AJAX search, very similar to the Flickr one in the screencast linked from the main rails page. I''ve been doing my testing in Safari, where everything has worked fine, only to now discover the results of the search action seem disinclined to load in Firefox. I can enter a URL to return the HTML fragment that''s supposed to be dropped into

In testing my application on different browsers, I''ve noticed a few differences:- a password_field :size=>20 is smaller than a text_field :size=>20 on Internet Explorer. They are the same on Firefox and Safari. makes my login box look silly. the same can be seen on the login screen for this forum. the password box is a little shorter on IE6. more annoying however is I have
