...and Railscasts, and they work fine - except when there are validation issues on the address piece it just returns saying "Addresses is invalid". I would much rather it say "Street Address is blank" or "City cannot be blank" any ideas on how to do this? 2) In using the GeoKit plugin I am attempting to use the acts_as_mappable piece so when I create an address it adds the lat and lng to the DB. If I choose just 1 field and specify it this works fine and the table populates, but I want to concat all of the form values (Street_Address_1, City, State, Postal_Code, Country)...

Hi all, I''m trying to use the excellent GeoKit plugin to geocode addresses entered by users. I use GeoKit to get latitude and longitude values, then plot these using Google Maps. The problem I have is that the maps produced tend to be slightly off where they should be. Nearby addresses seem to be grouped to one point, which suggests that the p...

Newbie here :) So, a friend mentioned that geokit is the way to go if I want to make a simple location based app. I basically want to make a list of locations so the app should allow me to Create a location, give it a name and an address along with the geo location information associated with it. (Geokit will take care of this last thing right?)...

I''m just curious about this, since my solution involved stubbing a call to GeoIp. Is there a good rule of thumb for when you make exceptions to the ''no stubbing'' philosophy of Cucumber? My step was: "Given I am accessing the site from Japan," but I can think of other situations - mostly when interacting with web services, that I''d probably

Hey guys! Does anyone knows how to a ruby program communicate with the Google API, which one is written in Javascript ? I''ve heard something about a wrapper to do the communication, but i didn''t find anything yet. I know a plugin for rails can do that (geokit), but i don''t know how.

Hi, I would like to know if there is a library that provides an API to support map scrolling, like the one available in google maps. This is, I would like to create a user interface where the user is able to see a small part of a large map. It can then move the view, thus observing another part of the map. Additionally, I would also like to provide a zoom mechanism. Thanks in advance. --

The situation is the following (please if the code is horrible, just let me know, still learning): I want to log a dive. I might have a new location on that dive at which point I have to create a new Location, and then create the dive. A dive has_one location. A location has_many
