Rails - Apr 2005 - REQ: would someone "in the know" create a diagram of...

There are some very nice diagrams up on the RoR web site. Unfortunately, 
they''re a little bit too high level for me to get lots of benefit from.
The reality of the Rails app directory and where the files are and how 
they relate to one another might seem overly basic to all ye'' pros out 
there, but a diagram of such a basic thing to understand would be 
*exceedingly* helpful. For instance, nowhere on the diagrams are the 
Helpers mentioned, so where do they/can they fit into the process? Such 
a nuts and bolts perspective would be very appreciated.

Would someone create a png of a diagram like this and put it somewhere 
where other beginners like myself can see it... maybe the RoR wiki?

Thanks a ton!

Regards, Abe B.

Have you seen the cheatsheets that Amy Hoy did?  They might not be quite
what you''re looking for, but they might also help :)

Check out http://www.slash7.com/flashback/2005/03/and_now.html, it might
be useful.

5 minutes + dia --> scary picture.
I''ve attached how I think of what''s going on.  Essentially
from the
perspective of control and an incoming request.

It could do with some improvement, I''ve probably left out a few areas I
haven''t played with yet.

Not exactly what I was looking for but still excellent resources that I 
hadn''t seen yet. Thanks for pointing them out!

Thanks a lot David! This is exactly what I''ve been needing, it already 
makes a lot more clear to me. Thanks again!
