A quick survey... what''s the best gui debugging tool for Rails 1.0 on Linux that you''ve used? SW versions? Personally I''ve tried FreeRIDE 0.95 and RDT 0.7.0 in Eclipse 3.1.2. Both are very slow and the latter got quite a few bugs itself. TIA! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

In an attempt to provide a gracefully degradable link_to_remote, I repeat myself every time: <%= link_to_remote(''Signup'', {:url => {:controller => ''user'', :action => ''signup''}}, {:href => url_for(:controller => ''user'', :action => ''signup'')}) %> Looked around the RDoc &

Searched around this forum, but didn''t find an answer for this question. Can you help this newbie understand any overlap and/or difference between request.xhr? and respond_to? If request.xhr? is true, should I expect it wants.js below? respond_to do |wants| wants.html { redirect_to(person_list_url) } wants.js wants.xml { render :xml => @person.to_xml(:include

Hi Guys, I''m having some trouble getting login_engine to work. I''ve followed the steps in the README file to the letter (I think) with the exception of the Mailer stuff and cannot get my application to run. Heres what I have; module ApplicationHelper include login_engine end ##################################### require ''login_engine'' class

Saw a lot of recommendations for Firebug (http://www.joehewitt.com/software/firebug/) on this list. I''ve scanned its docs and tried it--many useful features. But I''m so dense that I can''t get it to spy XHR/AJAX requests and their response on FC5 running Firefox 1.5.0.4 and Firebug 0.4. Can someone tell me how to get to

Hi, I had created a new environment and tried to start the webrick server for that environment but it is giving an error:- E:/demo/vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/servers/ webrick.rb:11: warning: already initialized constant OPTIONS E:/demo/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_suppo rt/dependencies.rb:249:in `load_missing_constant'': Expected E:/Demo

Still new in my ROR walk, been busily coding on a game application as a fruitful exercise in becoming proficient in Ruby/ROR. However, I seem to have hit a speed bump and am befuddled over some exhibited behavior in ROR. 1. **Cookies** - on page 312 of the AWDwR book by DT and DHH, it states that if you create a cookie by assigning a value to cookies[name], you get a "default set of

Either - Ruby on Rails: Up and Running or Rails Cookbook I''ve heard so many negative things about Safari pdf''s and the whole program I''d like to get some feedback. I have AWDWR(2nd edition), RubyforRails(Manning), Programming Ruby(2nd edition), so I''m not even sure I actually need another book but maybe the approach or content is somewhat uniuqe. TIA Stuart

This is the second time that I''ve tried to install plugins where this error has occured. It only occurs when I use the -x flag. script/plugin install -x svn://cartographer.rubyforge.org/trunk/vendor/plugins/cartographer /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.0.0/lib/commands/plugin.rb:675:in `method'': wrong number of arguments (0 for 1) (ArgumentError) from

Hello, It seems that there is a small probability of collisions among uuid''s produced by uuidtools'' UUID.random_create() running in concurrent user processes on a host (fcgi)? The ~2 bytes extracted from the randomized clock_sequence make a collision unlikely. http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/8572/uuidtools-1.0.0.zip Do I miss something? DD -- Posted via

The AWDwR book has the following: add_index :categories_products, [:product_id, :category_id] add_index :categories_products, :category_id The first, composite index actually serves two purposes: it creates an index which can be searched on both foreign key columns, and with most databases it also creates an index that enables fast lookup by the product id. The second index then completes

When processing a request, where can you obtain the language setting of a user''s browser? I know we can read @request.env["HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE"] in an action easily. But I need to access it before being routed to a controller''s action... because the accepted language dictates my app''s language setting programmatically and what action to take.

As an example - you have a select list of all the U.S. states and the user can make multiple choices. How do you grab all those choices into the database and they would be used for queries. I was reading up on serialize() but the warning in AWDWR is that it doesn''t work well for queries. Also composites / aggragates seems a bit much, maybe not. I know in the past I''ve used

Hey all, I''m having some issues moving a project that incorporates Backgroundrb onto a staging server... For some reason (surely of my own doing), my RailsBase workers are insisting on using trying to access my development DB instead of my "production" DB. When I try to load a model object from within a worker, I get the following: 20061120-21:54:28 (26296)

Question, and I''ll preface it by asking if this is the right list to be posting questions regarding anything past Rails 1.1.6 , (i.e. edgerails) ? In the latest revision of AWDWR there is a sample REST based app. During the creation of the controller and actions, there is a foot note that says: "7. By the time you''re reading this, there may well be support build into Rails

When developing applications, Webrick will automatically reload controllers, models, etc. if the source changes. For obvious reasons, it doesn''t do this for plugins, which makes it a pain to develop said plugins. I was hoping Mongrel might have some facility to say "watch this directory too and reload any changes". Obviously, re-init''ing all plugins would be

I un-commented the following in my environments.rb file config.plugins = [ :all, :exception_notification, :ssl_requirement] but I get the following errors: in `ensure_all_registered_plugins_are_loaded!'': Could not locate the following plugins: exception_notification and ssl_requirement (LoadError) from /Users/mitch/.gem/ruby/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.2/lib/rails/plugin/loader.rb:44:in

I''m getting to the point now where I really need to start trapping the errors. So from my AWDWR book, I added the following directly from the book into application.rb... def rescue_action_in_public(exception) case exception when ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound, ActionController::UnknownAction render(:file => "#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/404.html",

Hello list, I''m trying to start my Rails server after doing a long complex switch from Postgres to MySQL, and I''m getting the following error: => Booting WEBrick... /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.2.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:200:in `const_missing'': uninitialized constant ApplicationController (NameError) from

I use RJS-Templates plugin.

How cat I define plugins include order or protect my own function from being overriden? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
