Hi,
I have some strange output in my log file, where I am sending information
via a form to the database, eg:
<-- snip -->
Processing StoreController#add_var_product (for 127.0.0.1 at 2006-01-30
12:30:19) [POST]
Parameters: {"size"=>{"id"=>""},
"x"=>"44", "y"=>"11",
"action"=>"add_var_product",
"controller"=>"store"}
<-- snip-->
Although I can get things working no problem, these strange values seem to
have appended themselves to the data I am POST''ing ?
The basic look of the page is several different forms for different
products, is it possible these "x" and "y" values are
marking a position on
page ? Tis pretty clever if so.....
Any ideas ?
Kind Regards,
Paul

Are you using an image as a submit button? - I would guess that the x and y are to do with your mouse position on the button when you click ''submit''...

Is there any way to turn it off so that the x and y coordinates are not sent? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I notice digg.com does this for their search bar, but x and y are not sent in their get request. Yet for me, x and y are always automatically sent. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Has anybody found how to remove x and y values from what is sent by the form?

That''s coming from the image you are using to let your users submit the form. The x and y are the coordinates on the image that they clicked. -- James Mitchell On May 31, 2007, at 12:20 PM, Michel ( Dagnan ) wrote:> > Has anybody found how to remove x and y values from what is sent by > the > form? > > Thanks > > Paul Wright wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I have some strange output in my log file, where I am sending >> information >> via a form to the database, eg: >> >> <-- snip --> >> Processing StoreController#add_var_product (for 127.0.0.1 at >> 2006-01-30 >> 12:30:19) [POST] >> Parameters: {"size"=>{"id"=>""}, "x"=>"44", "y"=>"11", >> "action"=>"add_var_product", "controller"=>"store"} >> <-- snip--> >> >> Although I can get things working no problem, these strange values >> seem >> to >> have appended themselves to the data I am POST''ing ? >> >> The basic look of the page is several different forms for different >> products, is it possible these "x" and "y" values are marking a >> position >> on >> page ?

Yeah, I''ve figured it out :) But is it possible to delete them ? James Mitchell wrote:> That''s coming from the image you are using to let your users submit > the form.

From where? Your log files? The address bar? Stop using an image
to post your forms, and I promise they will disappear. ;)
Or, if that''s not an option ignore them. ;) If that''s not an
option,
put a filter on your controller, or for a global fix, move the filter
to the application.rb file.
The below demonstrates stripping it from the params as they come in.
It''s not entirely clear to my why they would cause you problems. The
only logical thing I can think of is if you are logging all params
globally and just want to reduce some noise.
If not, oh well, have fun!
Example:
----> console
$ rails dagnan
$ cd dagnan/
$ mate .
$ script/server
$ script/generate controller foo index
----> app/controllers/foo_controller.rb
<form name="foo" action="/foo/index"
method="get">
Name: <input type="text" name="name"
value="<%=params["name"]%>">
<br/>
<input type="submit" name="Submit"
value="Submit">
<br/>
<input type="image" src="/images/rails.png">
</form>
----> app/views/foo/index.rhtml
class FooController < ApplicationController
before_filter :clense
def index
params.each do |t|
puts "#{t[0]} => #{t[1]}"
end
end
def clense
params.delete("x")
params.delete("y")
end
end
