Hi, Does anyone else have any problems with Safari and in place editor fields? I''m specifically talking about trying to save a null value in a text box.

Hi there, I''ve been digging around trying to find some information (mostly examples) on how one would handle a progress bar upload using BackgrounDRb and File Column. I did read http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/ and Ezra''s blog of course, but I still have a few questions. I made a simple upload form (as a test) that is submitted to the "upload_song" action. def

A posting habtm categories, and a category habtm postings. class Category < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :postings end class Posting < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :categories end In my blog_controller, where the actual posting is saved, is where I think I''m

Hi there, I''m having a bit of an issue with my before_filter. I know that the filters put in the application.rb controller are global for all the controllers. In my application filter I''d like to allow access to the RSS feed method in a ''member'' controller and skip the login checks that the before_filters are currently performing. In my application my filters

Hi there, I''m having some difficulties finding some decent info on getting Switchtower to function for my needs. I''ve read most of the Switchtower doc on http://manuals.rubyonrails.com/read/chapter/97, however it''s not answering some potent questions I have. 1. The doc mentions, as an example, using an SVN repos at http://svn.switchtower.com/flipper/trunk What if I

Hi there, I''ve been trying to paginate over a list of members that all share a tag in common using the acts_as_taggable plugin. 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

Hi there, What''s the best way with handling concurrent uploads with mongrel?

Hi there, I was reading through the AGWD book about creating a Rails web service. I was wondering if there are any good tutorials that I could check out? The book did well at explaining the basics, but I wouldn''t mind looking at some more examples that might clear some questions up (direct, layered and delegated dispathing in particular).
