One more question: Is there some way to set the human_name of a column? e.g.: human_name for column address1 shouldn''t be Address1 but "Address, line 1". If not, should I make a hash with my custom names? Best regards, -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Yannick Majoros http://www.inma.ucl.ac....

In a standard scaffold generator, the list.rhtml looks something like this ... <% for column in Book.content_columns %> <th><%= column.human_name %></th> <% end %> How can I modify this code so for each table column add my own name not the "human_name" generated code? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

...he rails API, I don''t find anything. When I look it up in the Ruby API, it says that the form is obj.send(symbol [,args...]). Well, there is no symbol in use here. So I am confused about the "send". Then, I can''t find a method "name" anywhere. Unlike "human_name", it is not listed as one of the methods of a Column in active record. At least I can''t find it. I know what this code accomplishes, but I wish I understood it better. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Shelby _______________________________________________ Rails...

My code executes fully: <% for column in ModelName.content_columns %> <th><%= column.human_name %></th> <% end %> but it does not pick up any columns in my model''s table that end in "_id".

Do most others in the community agree with this statement? It seems to me that i18n is: 1. Actually important to many people 2. Not really the difficult to implement in concept 3. Something that people like to point out about Rails to say it''s not ready foir "Enterprise" It seems to be that a big part of Rails is encouraging people to do things the "Right Way",

Hi all! Playing around with in_place_editor_field, I found that when you set a field to be empty, you can''t edit it at all anymore after that. Am I doing something wrong or is this the way it is intended to be? If so, is there any way around that behaviour? Is it just styling? Best regards, Raphael -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
