Hi,
assuming I have a db table "Items" like this:
CREATE TABLE items (
id INTEGER NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
product_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
name VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
description VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL,
imageurl VARCHAR(55),
imagethumburl VARCHAR(55),
price FLOAT NOT NULL,
address_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
seller_contact_info_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
totalscore INTEGER NOT NULL,
numberofvotes INTEGER NOT NULL,
primary key (id),
foreign key (address_id) references addresses(id),
foreign key (product_id) references products(id),
foreign key (seller_contact_info_id) references
seller_contact_infos(id)
);
and I want to do the image upload inside a form - can I extend the
"Item" model in order to let me handle the file upload? Any pointers
in
the right direction would be much appreciated :)
Regards,
Robert

Form: <%= form_tag :action => ''create'' %> <%= file_field ''some_model'', ''data'' %> <%= submit_tag ''Upload!'' %> <%= end_form_tag %> Controller Action: def create @some_model = SomeModel.new # must call the read method on uploaded file to convert # them to strings @some_model.data = params[:some_model][:data].read @some_model.save end -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Thanks for the hint, I''ll look into it. I don''t want to store the image into the db though, but as a file on the server. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Yeah - the only thing missing then is validation :) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
