Hi list, i spent the last two days building a window class. Windows can be dragged, resized, minimized and closed. The windows are table-less, which makes rendering faster. Also divs with overflow:auto don''t seem to like dragging. The class is losely based on the resizable class by Michael Daines, which was posted here some weeks ago. BTW i spent three times more time on CSS tweaking

Hey, I uploaded the (probably) final version of RTWindows. It is far from perfect, but it does enough for me. Main problem is slowness, but that seems to be a general problem of draggables.

I want to clean my code by moving the duplicated lines : partial = render_to_string( :partial => "#{file}", :formats => [:html] ) to the pagination_partials function. ================================================= WORKING CODE: ================================================= def render_format_search_partial(file, options={}) # TODO remove this line to use the one

Just for collective knowledge as I have found no info on this problem online: I solved this by adding an .html.erb file for the "missing template", since by design or bug Rails3 will not find or render another controllers view (in my experience). Then in the new html.erb file, I just put <%= render "comparisons/display" %> because the views *are* able to find templates

Hi all, I know that in general, view and controller tests should be isolated, such that controller specs don''t test views etc. However, I think I''ve run into a situation that might be an exception.

The content controller is calling a template controller, and I would like to be able to call render_to_string() within the template controller, however I receive the error:

I use render_to_string to generate short reports (in HTML) under certain conditions when users access my application. The reports are stored in the database and uses database information at the time they are generated (and can thus not be generated later, e.g; when you want to consult them). The reports are generated the same way regardless of which controller has been accessed. Conditions for

I''m using render_to_string in an after_filter, which renders a partial that is sent to a web service.

Hi all, I''m trying to do multiple render_to_string() calls in a method call, and I''m getting attributes being modified in unexpected ways. @left_sidebar = render_to_string( :partial ..... ) puts @left_sidebar.id (-> 123456) @right_sidebar = render_to_string( :partial .....) puts @left_sidebar.id (-> 234567 WTF!?!?!) puts @right_sidebar.id (-> 345678)

I have a project where I''m publishing files. Once when the user clicks publish via a URL and one when an email is received that tells the app they want to publish again. Because the publishing requires templates I have them in there own views. The problem is when I want to publish via email I don''t want to ask the controller to render the views. This is what I tried to
