Dear all, file_column now works fine with object.save i.e., it updates my database field with the correct image file name and places the image file into the correct public folder. However, I cannot get file_column to work the same way with object.update when trying to change image. It only updates my field with the image file name. However, the new image is not copied into the correct

I essentially have the following models in place: class Item < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :images end class Image < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :item file_column :filename end In my view, I have javascript that basically creates N file_column_fields for uploading multiple images. The problem I''m facing is in the controller. What is the best method for getting all of these files through the has_many and into file_column? I''ve tried a number of variations on Image.new to no avail. I know someone out there on the interweb h...

...can see that there is a DEFAULT_OPTION hash with some root path options and such which can be merged from an options paramater. These static path changes are not a problem. My question is dynamic path options. My upload form, when you boil it down, has two fields. The first is the ''file_column_field'' form helper which grabs the file off the harddrive and adds its filename to a :path attribute of the Model. The second is a drop down which selects from a list of publications that the file belongs to. This gets written to the :publication attribute in the Model. Id like to pass th...

Or is it not possible to handle in the view without writing a model method? I''d prefer not to, as there would be several models with duplicated code. Thank you! Dan Naab

1) installation is not as smooth as some other plug-ins. If you follow the instructions on http://www.kanthak.net/opensource/file_column/ it makes a directory called trunk instead of file_column.
