Hi,
I''m trying to put a quicktime movie into a page in my rails app, but
if I use an embed statement on the page, it issues a GET command that
is routed to the controller/method that is rendering the rhtml and
sending the movie name as the id.
Do I need to do something to make the routing behave differently?
or is there something else I can do to get the embed statement to
work properly?
Here is the embed statement ( which works in an html page outside of
Rails):
<embed src="SmallFry.mov" type="video/quicktime"
width="320"
height="256" kioskmode="false" autostart="false"
hspace="15"
vspace="15" align="middle"></embed>
And here is the error I get:
NoMethodError (You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it!
Apparently it is trying to execute my_action with "SmalFry.mov" as
the id.
Parameters: {"action"=>"my_action",
"id"=>"SmallFry.mov",
"controller"=>"my_controller"}
Any insight is much appreciated,
Denise

You need to put the movie in /public and reference it as... src="/SmallFry.mov" On 12/23/06, Denise Eatherly <denise-MiB096+B/8qHpcu+I7s1tA@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > > Hi, > > I''m trying to put a quicktime movie into a page in my rails app, but > if I use an embed statement on the page, it issues a GET command that > is routed to the controller/method that is rendering the rhtml and > sending the movie name as the id. > > Do I need to do something to make the routing behave differently? > or is there something else I can do to get the embed statement to > work properly? > > Here is the embed statement ( which works in an html page outside of > Rails): > > <embed src="SmallFry.mov" type="video/quicktime" width="320" > height="256" kioskmode="false" autostart="false" hspace="15" > vspace="15" align="middle"></embed> > > And here is the error I get: > > NoMethodError (You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! > > Apparently it is trying to execute my_action with "SmalFry.mov" as > the id. > > Parameters: {"action"=>"my_action", "id"=>"SmallFry.mov", > "controller"=>"my_controller"} > > Any insight is much appreciated, > Denise > > > > > > >-- seth at subimage interactive http://www.subimage.com/sublog/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
