Select SUM(?) Query
When using PHP, I was able to
enter a query against my list of invoices such as :
Select SUM(amount) from invoices where project="123"
This would give me the total amount of all invoices for project 123.
In rails, how would I do this? I tried using "find_by_sql," but
couldn''t figure out how to extract the results out of this. Thanks!

Rails Edge, has_many :through in searches
I have two tables, a Projects table and a Clients table.
It''s basically a HABTM relationship, but I have additional project/
client-specific information in the join table. I''m trying to use the
new has_many :through method to join these. It works fine when
displaying records, but when I try to search, I''m having this problem:

Custom flash[:notice]
For the most part, my
flash[:notice] messages fall into one of two categories: either a
message stating that something happened successfully (which is colored
green), or messages showing errors (which I would like to be red).
Is it possible to set some sort of flag on these messages to choose
which color I want to show, or would I need to base it on CSS and set
the class in the text, i.e.

Getting number of days in a month
In PHP, there was an argument you could pass to the Date function to
get the number of days in the current month:
echo date("t"); // Outputs "28" for February
I don''t see anything like this in Ruby/Rails. Right now, I''m using a
very ugly line to pull the last day of the month:
@number_of_days = (Date.strptime(Date.today.strftime("%Y-%m-01"))

ActionMailer e-mails getting tagged as junk in Outlook 2003
Whenever an email is sent via ActionMailer, and the recipient is using
Outlook 2003 (with SP2 installed), the e-mail is getting put in the junk
e-mail folder. Since Outlook doesn''t give a reason it was tagged as
junk, it''s hard to determine what to change.
I''ve compared the message headers of the "junk" mail and a valid email
sent through Outlook, and the

Single quotes in parameters
I have a "search" action for my "projects" controller, which defines a
set of projects as follows
@projects = Project.find(:all, :include => [:user,:clients], :conditions

This works fine, until I type an entry into my search box that has a

Options_from_collection_for_select -> Multiple fields in display
The following code shows a list of
the users, with username being each person''s initials (mine would be
DM).

However, I''d like to have the display of the SELECT box be "DM - Dylan

File_column not keeping value during page reloads
I''m trying to use the file_column plug-in to attach a file to a
newsletter posting. It works fine if I get the form right the first
time, but if I get an error, such as not typing in a required field, and
the form re-displays, my file selection box reverts to "no file selected."
Here''s my relevant controller code:

RSpec 2/Rails 3 - content_for in view specs
My main layout includes separate content_for/yield sections for my header,
sidebar, footer, and content. However, when running a view spec, the
`rendered` variable seems to only contain a string of just the primary
content and ignores the header/footer/sidebar as well as the rest of my
layout file (the "render" call just returns my primary content wrapped in
generic <html> and

Nil column results, possible to ignore?
For a table "clients" there are city, state, and zip fields. However, for some clients we only have a state with no actual address.
The following code throws a "You have a nil object" error when outputting my client list. Is there a way around this, short of writing a specific case for each possibility?

Dates entered as MM/DD/YY
I have some forms on my site that use text boxes to enter dates. They
typically default to today''s date, in the format "MM/DD/YYYY"
However, sometimes a user will erase the box and type in a date, but
instead of typing 02/01/2006, they''ll type 2/1/06. Once the record is
created in the mysql database, it reads as ''0006-02-01'' instead of

ActionMailer - 550 Error - Net:SMTPFatalError
I have page on my site which sends out e-mails to all of our clients.
The idea is that if a client''s e-mail bounces, the server catches the
bounce message and flags the client (from the Rails Recipes book).
This works perfectly, except in the event that the destination domain
is my own. Since I''m running my own postfix server on the same box,

select vs. select_tag
I have a "Users" object and
a "Timesheets" object. Each timesheet entry belongs to a User, which is
selected from a drop-down list. The timesheet has a user_id field. (The
user needs to have an option to select a different user due to the way
our system works.)
If i use the "select" object, which is bound to the Timesheet model,

Textilize on ajax update
I''m writing a basic to-do
application. I''m using a form_remote_tag to submit the entry to my
controller, which then returns the entry to be displayed in the table
of to-do items. However, I''d like to be able to "textilize" the entry
without having to reload the page. Is there any way to have my ajax
function textilize the text before displaying it in the list?

Controller iterating through returned records and appending to each
I have a controller that gets a list of employees (which has an "include =>
[:salaries, :incentives, :billablegoals, :reviews]"). I then need it to
iterate through each employee and determine their current active goal based
on the "effective date."
After playing around with it a bunch, I got the following to work. Only
problem is that if I remove the "@employees.each {
