Hi all, I am trying to add an article editing interface to my future webstore, and I am wondering what to use for text formatting. I would like to avoid using HTML, and calibre-bbcode just won''t work (see my last post). Is there some kind of library for live text formatting right in the browser? I would just need bold, italics, size and ul lists... Do you know of a good solution?

Hello all, An interesting problem, I am developing on Windows, another developer is using Unix, and our app and svn repository are running on a Linux box. We need an easy way to not keep breaking our app and each others development environs when we check in the code. The piece in question is the dispatch.fcgi. The path to ruby is (obviously) different in Windows and Unix. Has anyone run into

I was looking at Kyle Mawell''s extremely nifty-looking StateModels plugin http://www.kylemaxwell.com/articles/2006/02/06/fun-with-single-table-inheritance and before I go down the road with it, I was wondering if anyone has used it with file_column. The way file_column deals with an uploaded file -- by storing it to the filesystem in a path that employs the model name and id --

I want my web app to have a signup/login generator but have 2 tiers of users - normal and premium. There seems to be lots of login generator and engines with scattered tutorials about extensible authorisation and Im lost as which is the ''best'' or most ''easy to use'' solution. Anyone had success in this area? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I am just installing a new test environment, but this is just for preparing the next one, which will be a production server. I am doing a clean Debian Sarge 3.1 install with stable sources. I have to decide if I install Apache 1.x or 2 now. I have read that FastCGI is better supported/developed for Apache 1.x. Is this (still) true? What is easier, more stable, etc? I want to run rails

Hi *, I have been using radrails as an IDE for awhile now and we were getting along just fine - but recently it has just gone totally postal?!?? I created a new rails app - when I click to expand the folders there is no framework in place, just the root folder of the app. To add insult to injury two weeks of work also just disapeered - I kid you not just gone without any deletion on my part.

I''ve got Liquid installed and maybe since I''m not coming in with Django experience, I''m completely mystified by how to pass anything worthwhile to a template. In my controller: def preview @customer = Customer.find(1) @letter = Letter.find(1) @liquid_body = Liquid::Template.parse(@letter.body) @x =

The activerecord-sqlserver-adapter gem is still sort of available via gems.rubyonrails.org, but it will not install on machines that have Rails 2.1 (or its version of ActiveSupport) installed. This has been confirmed with versions of rubygems through 1.2. This seems to indicate that Rails is no longer tested against the MSSQL adapter and that the adapter is also no longer tested against Rails

I''m developing on Windows and deploying to FreeBSD+lighttpd using Switchtower and I''ve got things generally working. My problem now is that file_column data gets zapped every time I deploy, because Switchtower creates a whole new myapp/public directory with each rev. I looked through the file_column docs and found the :root_path option, which I use in my models as follows:

I apologize if this is redundant. I've been Googling, searching the archive and reading the help all morning and I am not getting closer to my goal. I have a series of data( xi, yi). It is not evenly sampled and it is messy (meaning that there is a lot of scatter in the data). I want to fit a normal distribution (i.e. a gaussian) to the data in order to find the center. (The data

Can someone point me to a reference or tutorial that shows how to map foreign key relationships in the model? For example given: Users id name email Posts id user_id title How do I associate user_id with users.id in the Post and User models? has_many and belongs_to don''t seem to do it. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

At present, I use an update like this to set the user''s last login time: authenticated_user.update_attribute(:last_login, Time.now) However, this calls the following, updating all fields: UPDATE users SET `last_login` = ''2006-05-02 13:27:41'', `hashed_password` = .... Is there any way I can tell ActionRecord to only update the one field? I don''t really want

I find that many of my controllers have a dozen or more methods and that it can take a few moments to orient myself when I open a controller I haven''t looked at in a while. Does anyone have suggestions for organizing methods in a controller (alphabetical, by function, etc) to increase readability and scanability? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Steve - That was the issue.. It seems obvious now, but I needed to reference Property.PropertType.name instead of property.propertytype.name Thanks!!

This is probably me having an issue with the mvc way of living.. .I''m used to perl/php scripting... I''ve got a photo blog I''m making... and in past iterations of this website, I''d just name the photos after the id of the entry.
