...e list volume grew, it became utterly impossible to browse through the new messages and very hard to locate the useful gems I had previously found. After subscribing to a few more lists, I realized that there had to be a better way.

Hiall, Unfortunately I just can''t find out how to setup a default selected value when using collection_select. My call is like so: <%= collection_select(:consultant, :lastname, @consultants, :id, :lastname, { :selected => @current_consultant.id } ) %> which is not working, I debugged so far that I know that @current_consultant.id contains the correct value. Any tips? cheers

The regular way of paginating over a collection doesn''t seem to work with acts_as_taggable. Here''s what my method looks like that takes in a tag name, finds all the members that share the tag and then displays all the members. Nothing too fancy

...ust over 10 minutes to reboot. What up with that? The FastCgiServer processes also have the RAILS_ENV variable set to production. Of course, once it reboots the app is lightning fast and all is well. Is this just something I have to deal with by using Apache/FastCGI? -- Posted with http://DevLists.com.

Hi, when I define a db column to be non-nullable or of length 20 or as numeric, I would expect rails to validate that, but that doesn''t seem to be the case. Any idea why that is? The metadata is accessible, at least in the mysql case. I am using rails 1.0 with mysql 5. Cheers, Mariano

...The problem that crops up is that it simply inserts the contents of the RJS template into the appropriate spot as flat text without actually executing the javascript. I''m on edge rails ATM.

Did the mailing list break? I haven''t received a new message since around 11:30am (EDT). The list on www.devlists.com also shows no activity. Yet, looking at the Ruby forum (http://www.ruby-forum.com/forum/3), it does show some messages have been posted. Of course, this will probably not get sent out... ;) Just wondering... jt -- Posted with http://DevLists.com. Sign up and save your mailbox.

I couldnt find one on the wiki... which is fair enough considering Ricks patch: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/changeset/4022 that fixed them only went through 5 days ago.. Cheers -henster

Hi, I''m using scriptaculous to provide an auto complete textbox - and it works perfectly - but I was wondering if there was anyway to let users navigate the choices using the keyboard i.e the curor keys as opposed to having to use the mouse?
