Hi Has anyone used OpenRico''s "on-demand listbox" LiveGrid or something similar in a Rails app already? How well does it behave? I''m asking this because I need a scrollable list but the number of records in the table could be well above 5000. In the past I''ve used similar "on-demand fetchings" in desktop apps and it was a...

I''m no friend of paging, but I have to somehow deal with lists of potentially large numbers of objects. The Rico LiveGrid[*] at first blush seems attractive, but has some major drawbacks. It doesn''t work with Safari/Konqueror, not yet anyway. It can only handle fixed-size tables and requires that widths, including column widths, are hand-crafted. I''m looking for a widget that ideally meets all o...

I''m trying to get a Rico LiveGrid working, and I am a bit stuck on how to accomplish this. I have a page that successfully queries a controller and updates a <div> containing a table. I have two versions of the action; one uses the render_partial to return a rendered version of that table, and the other returns an XML-RPC do...

Greetings all. I''m using the Microsoft "NorthWind Traders" database "orders" table as test data for the Rico LiveGrid JavaScript. The problem I''m noticing is that some of the records in the "ShipName" field contain ampersands -- which for some reason are not being escaped by Rails.

Is anyone working on a scrolling table or div such as the openrico livegrid demo? I''m looking to develop (much like smashbox''s scrolling images) a collection of thumbnails that you can scroll horizontally. I''ve got a non-prototype.js example but I wanted to check to see if anyone was closer than I to this. BTW, I will be finishing up my sli...

Hey everyone, I''m looking for a good way to display a table of data in rails. I want something with scroll bars and resizable columns. Am I crazy for trying this? Is there a class or such already written that makes pretty data grids? -Josh ----------- Due to the recent increase in spam and falsely sent email, I now PGP Sign all of my outgoing mail to prove my identity.

...''s within the visible portion of the viewport, trigger a remote_form_tag // that appends to the bottom of viewport the next bit, and hides the image </div> Is this the best way to do this? If so, how do I figure out whether my image is within the viewport? I know that Rico has the LiveGrid functionality which I could cobble into place, but I''d rather not go through all the requirements it has. I just want an action to take place when an image is in the viewport. Thanks in advance! -z

Our company is mainly made up off application developers but we have a lot of web work coming up so we are deciding which route to take at the moment. We initially identfied ASP.NET 2.0 with the ATLAS AJAX framework because of the RAD features, easy to learn etc. I had read some stuff on ROR and our Boss who is open minded allowed me to create a sample application with ROR. He was impressed
