While editing a record I need to have a link to create a new record in another scaffold. I''ve done this by using a popup window <%= link_to("Add new Person", "/person/new", :popup => [''window_name'', ''width=600,height=600'']) %> It all works great - but when the save is done I want to kill the popup window.

Apologies in advance if this ignites a war of comflicting opinions.... I''m a few days away from going live with my first RoR application. It is completely database centric and each user will have his own queries so cacheing will not really help. I have a dedicated linux server being built by my hosting provider and I need to tell them which webserver to use. The databse is MySQL

Hi, I''ve been moving my app from my development environment (my laptop running OSX) to my test environment (a dedicated Debian box in a datacentre somewhere). All seems to be OK except ruby Plugins don''t seem to work. When I go to a page which uses a plugin I get errors... e.g. uninitialized constant Paypal Same happens with other plugins I''m using e.g. FasterCSV

Does anyone have any standard code for uploading files to the filesystem? I''ve got code already for uploading images to the database but I''d prefer to store the files on the filesystem. In particular I need to know how to (a) ensure a file has been selected in the file_field (b) how to extract the filename from the file_field (c) how to actually move the file from client to

In testing my application on different browsers, I''ve noticed a few differences:- a password_field :size=>20 is smaller than a text_field :size=>20 on Internet Explorer. They are the same on Firefox and Safari. makes my login box look silly. the same can be seen on the login screen for this forum. the password box is a little shorter on IE6. more annoying however is I have

Hi, I changed my environmnet.rb to say PRODUCTION mode, however when I start up a server "ruby scripts/server" a) it runs in development mode (via the logs) - any ideas why? b) why does webbrick run - I thought by default now it was supposed to be lightty Tks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Has anyone any experience of getting the Paypal plug in to work? I''ve set myself up on the Paypal sandbox, I''ve setup my sending and receiving accounts, i''ve got the Paypal button on my view, I can go and make payments ok, but I can''t get the Instant Payment Notification part to work.

Does anyone know how to validate if a file has been selected using a file_field control? I want to ensure a file has been selected before the associated action is selected.

When I include my website address in emails generated by Action Mailer they look OK but don''t actually work. e.g. looks like www.mywebsite.com but the actual URL is x-msg//79/www.mywebsite.com What''s this x-msg//79 ? And how do I get rid of it? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

In my development environment, it takes 5-10 seconds to process a single outgoing email message. Is this normal? Presumably in production it will be just as slow. Is there any way to hive this off as a background task? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is there anyone out there who has managed to get Paypal immediate payment notificiations to work with the Paypal plugin? I can get as far as making the payment in the sandbox, but can''t get any acknowledgement back to confirm the payment was made. I''m confised as to how Paypal will know where to send the acknowledgement as I''ve not supplied my IP address or anything

I need to install RMagick as it is a required dependency for the file_column plugin which I am trying to use. I was completely baffled by the instructions on by the RMagick website for installing RMagick on OSX. However, I found these alternative instructions which come from the same chap who provided the instructions for installing RoR on Tiger.
