I''m trying to get my del.icio.us links to appear in the layout, so it''s throughout the entire application. Here''s the code I have: #controller - application.rb? def get_authenticated(path, http) request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(path) request.basic_auth ''user'', ''pass'' response = http.request(request) response.value response.body end @links = Array.new @descriptions = Array.new @times = Array.new @i = 0 http = Net::HTTP.new(''api.del.icio.us'', 443) http.use_ssl = true http.start do |http| xml = get_authenticated(''/v1/posts/recent?count=10&tag=rpheath'', http) REXML::Document.new(xml).root.get_elements(''post'').each do |post| link = post.attributes[''href''] @links << link desc = post.attributes[''description''] @descriptions << desc time = post.attributes[''time''] @times << time end end #layout - application.rhtml? <% for link in @links %> <!-- display the links and stuff --> <% end %> All of this code works fine - I just don''t know where to put it so that it will show up in a layout that I can use across my application. Any help on this??? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
