Recaptcha (or other captchas)
Does anyone have any suggestions for a best practice implementation of Recaptcha (or other captchas - if you recommend going another route, I''m all ears)? I''ve found the recaptcha gem and a plugin but I don''t know which is the best implementation, and I haven''t found a thorough tutorial plus example code for either. Thanks -- Posted via

Probably OT, but CSS Help?
Ok I know this is off topic, but since you guys are usualy so helpful, I thought I''d try here first. Building a Rails App and one of the things we''ve done is put a CSS class of; * { font-family:"Lucida Grande",verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif; margin:0pt; padding:0pt; } Now the problem is that the padding setting, for one reason or another is killing my select

Rendering User attributes in XML
Let''s say an app has a User, and a User has many friends. Also, let''s say the app authentication was built on the restful_authentication plugin, and we have email and password in the Users table. The friends controller index might look like this; # GET /users/1/friends # GET /users/1/friends.xml def index @users = @user.friends respond_to do |format| format.html

Attachment_fu, Paperclip, & S3
For various reasons, I made a git branch and installed Paperclip in place of attachment_fu. Paperclip works great except that images seem to have lost some quality; edges have gone a little too jaggy to be able to drop attachment_fu just yet. After a post on the Paperclip Google Group, someone suggested the :convert_options could be passed additional attributes, like ''quality'',

Generating and authenticating by API keys
I''m trying to get my head round offering up an API for a RESTful app; is it just a matter of; 1. adding an api_key column to the resource on which incoming requests will made (the app has a User model but I think the API authentication will need to be done on the Site model to which Users belong), 2. generating the API key using Digest::SHA1 or similar (the last dev used SHA1 for the

Parsing multiple RSS & Atom feed formats
I''m working on a RSS aggregator, and I''ve based the parser on a script from this post; http://www.superwick.com/archives/2007/06/09/rss-feed-parsing-in-ruby-on-rails/ But, being the complete newbie, I''ve found that this parser only works for specifically formatted feeds. For example, some feeds will throw a ''nil text'' error. I know that I could make

Stubbing Paperclip calls to Amazon S3 (for Rspec)
Would anyone happen to know how to stub a call to S3 from Paperclip? I''ve searched every where and no one seems to have posted anything about this. I''ve done very little in the way of spec''ing dependencies on external services, so any ideas on how to do this with Paperclip & S3 would be most appreciated. I''m happy with stubbing out Thinking Sphinx - would

attr_accessible & site administrator issue
I''m working on an app which has a :featured_at in Users and Groups tables. The attribute enables a site admin to set records to a :featured_at datetime. There''s named spaced admin controllers for the Users and Groups. The problem is, to set the :featured_at in the admin controllers for users and groups, the attribute had to be exposed under attr_accessible in User.rb and
