I was trying to write a wrapper for number_to_currency to return currency in pounds. I used a helper class to do this. def number_to_pounds(amt) number_to_currency(amt, :unit => "£") end This works fine, but I am trying to understand why I can''t use a symbol to pass the values. I thought symbols were like pointers. (you now know I am a newbie). def

Here''s how I did it. def commify(number) c = { :value => "", :length => 0 } r = number.to_s.reverse.split("").inject(c) do |t, e| iv, il = t[:value], t[:length] iv += '','' if il % 3 == 0 && il != 0 { :value => iv + e, :length =>

I was wondering if this is possible. I have a model (Item) that contains products. These products have prices that I''d like to format using number_to_currency. Rather than doing this several times inside the view, I thought it might be nice to do it once inside the model. The item table has an field called regular_price which holds a currency amount. I would like to do something

I tracked down the error and saw that editing line 89 ( number_to_currency method) as follows solved the problem : Old piece of code : begin format.gsub(/%n/, number_with_precision(number, :precision => precision, :delimiter =>

I have just started with Ruby and Rails and am still greatly confuse, finding the usual tutorials not much help. What I want to do is take two numbers from my database, multiply them together and display them in a list with a comma for the thousands separator. This would be very easy to do in a spreadsheet, so I assumed it would be easy to do in Ruby on Rails but I can''t work out how. I

Any ideas why I would get an error in a RJS helper on view helpers such as number_to_currency. Example: # my_template.rjs page.help_me # my_helper for my_controller def help_me number_to_currency(10) end I have also tired page.number_to_currency but that doesn''t work either. Cheers, Nicholas

Hi Gurus, I have a class, specified in models cart.rb, which doesn''t inherit from anything--it''s just a container class Cart ... I just discovered I can''t call number_to_currency in that class. Any idea how to "include" it in my code? I tried ActionView.number_to_currency without luck. I could kill a few lines of non-DRY regexp code in cart.rb if I could

Hello I''ve encountered a little problem with zeros using the decimal data type Specifying a scale of 3 and inserting a number with 3 zeros after the point (for example 12345.000) it gets correctly stored in the database, but rails insists to show me the number only with the first zero after the point (12345.0) There is a way to tell rails to not truncate at the first zero?

Here is my code in the controller: def index @users = User.find :all, :order => ''name ASC'' @deal_groups = Deal.find(:all).group_by {|t|

Hey folks A long time ago, before i started working at this company, we used a Beast forum. The beast code (models, controllers and views) were all just lumped in with our app code, but when we moved to a new version (about a year and a half ago) the forum section of our site was closed off (simply by not linking to it anywhere). I''ve been tasked with resurrecting it, and the first
