similar to: Is there a list of html_options for the FormOptionsHelper?

I''m releasing a very small plugin that allows you to specify default values for fields in models. Ordinarily, you might do this in your schema, I guess, but then it''s awkward if you need that on a serialized field or need your default values calculated somehow. So you can do something like this: (repeated from an earlier post and the README) class Mixture <

I am trying to add html_options to select(): <%=select(:user, :id,[[''me'',1],[''myself'',2],[''and I'',3]], :select => {},:html_options => {"size" => 5, "multiple" => true})%> This does not work... How do I get the html_options to work? ActionView::Helpers::FormOptionsHelper -- Posted via

I''ve noticed lots of people online complain about not good documentation for Rails. I''m a PHP programmer but I''m a newbie on Rails. I''m creating a form with a drop-down menu. I finally got to do it. I noticed there is a html_options parameter for select. I was curious as to what other html_options are available but couldn''t find a list of options. I

I must be missing something when it comes to the parameter differences between form FormOptionsHelper select and FormTagHelper select_tag. Code that follows, works perfectly - <%= f.select :unit, units_to_select(@product), :size=>"20"%> The following code, does not. The helper function never even seems to be called. <%= select_tag "unit",

All, I know that it is _wrong_ for me to do it, but I would like to know what is the easiest way for me to call the select() method in ActionView::Helpers::FormOptionsHelper from within a controller?

Hi all, Currently I''m having to do this: def self.authorized_roles(controller, action) specific = self.find_by_controller_and_action(controller, action) all_actions = self.find_by_controller_and_action(controller, ''*'') all_controllers = self.find_by_controller(''*'') role_ids = [] specific.each do |role_item| role_ids <<

I''m lost on regular expressions to begin with... I''m trying to fix a value to one of 4 radio buttons as there will be value of either 1,2,3 or 4 in @roles_users... <TD><input type="radio" id="roles" name="case_managers[case_manager_name]" value="Case Manager Admin" <% if =~ @roles_users /1/ checked =

Hello, I''m working with a postgresql table CREATE TABLE elements ( id serial primary key, c1 text default f1(), ... cN text default fN() ); But if I use de lines @element = Element.new @element.save the values that element take are the nextval in the id field and nules in all the other fields.

Hi, I''m just starting with Rails and i''m trying to do something like this: <%= start_form_tag :action => ''add_user'', :id => @social_event_group %> <%= select ''user'', ''id'' , User.find_all.collect {|u| [ u.login, u.id ] }%></p> <%= submit_tag "Add User" %> <%= end_form_tag %>

In Rails 0.14.3, I''m doing the following in a view: <%= select ''folder'', ''format'', [''a'', ''b'', ''c''] %> This line in is failing with: ActionView::TemplateError (too few arguments.) Am I calling select incorrectly? (Yes, the @folder object does exist, and does have an attribute

This is pretty simple, but I must be missing the obvious. I''ve got a table that''s similar to this: USERS: - id int - username varchar(64) - password varchar(64) - role_id int ROLES: - id int - description varchar(16) I''ve had no troubles doing has_many relationships at all. But I want to map the user.role directly to the role model automatically (which sounds

Hello All, I am new to ROR, and can''t seem to get HABTM to cooperate entirely... however I might be abusing it! Before I try a different strategy I thought I''d ask here and see if I''m missing something simple. So say Projects and Companies are related. Projects can have multiple Companies, and Companies can be on multiple Projects. But, the same Company can also

As far as I can tell, it''s not possible to use html_options in conjunction with the select_* helpers. This means using them in conjunction with observe_field etc is pretty much impossible. Does anyone have a patch to add this functionality, or know of a workaround? I''m having a look at the moment, but not sure how to get it working without breaking existing stuff. --

Why doesn''t this output class="delete" into my html? <%= link_to_remote image_tag("delete"), :update => "relationship_" + @relationship.id.to_s, :url => { :controller => "relationships", :action => "destroy", :id => @relationship.id }, :html_options => {:class => "delete"} %> Regards, Ben

I have been struggling for quite sometime with this. Is there any way to configure the Model to store user defined value in the inheritance_column instead of the default value (which is class_name) The problem I have is like this: I have a User model and there are different models which inherit from this like Admin, Premium, Professional, etc. Each of these inherited models are identified by a

Hi, I''m using: select(object, method, choices, options = {}, html_options = {}) I''ve read the API where there''s this example: select("post", "person_id", Person.find_all.collect {|p| [ p.name, p.id ] }, { :include_blank => true }) should give this code: <select name="post[person_id]"> <option></option>

Why can''t do so something like: :onfocus => "alert(''hey'');" For a datetime_select. I tried doing: :html => {:onfocus => "alert(''hey'')"} and :html_options => {:onfocus => "alert(''hey'')"} any ideas? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hey, I''m new, so apologies if I''ve overlooked obvious resources or violated any etiquette rules for this list. Since rails does not support the MySQL enum data type, I''m following David''s advice of using a varchar and storing the valid values in the application: http://one.textdrive.com/pipermail/rails/2005-January/001536.html So here''s my

What''s the best way to set the default value of an optional local variable in a partial template? In the past I''ve used <% foo = default_value unless (defined? foo) %> But http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Base.html says *not* to use (defined? foo) and instead use (local_assigns.has_key? :foo) thus <% foo = default_value unless (local_assigns.has_key?
