...ugh to know when, if or why that should matter. Can someone educate me please? I want to believe this framework is ready for production work, but silently dropping data is a very big problem. I expect that I''ve done something wrong. I just want to know what. On 4/28/06, Larry White <ljw1001@gmail.com> wrote: > > My mistake - i was looking at the wrong task record.

The new pragmatic Rails Cookbook has a drag and drop sorting recipe. Does anyone know if this works with 1.0? I''ve followed the recipe (i think), and I can drag but when I drop everything goes back the way it was. It seems that the sort logic doesn''t get invoked. I put this code in my view: <%= sortable_element ''task-list'' , :url => {

PLEASE help me - this is making me insane. Can anyone suggest any reasons for this behavior? It occured previously, then went away and is now back. In Task.rb (where task is an active record subclass) def clear_schedule puts "clearing schedule for task" scheduled_end_date= nil #reset the scheduled end date save halt.

Hi, I''m using TextMate for rails development on OSX, but have reached a point where I need to run in a debugger and be able to step through the code as it executes. I have previously used the Eclipse Ruby plug in and another IDE for ruby development on windows, but never figured out how to run a Rails app in the debugger. How are other textmate users debugging and what else is there on

I have an app that uploads files into the directory RAILS_ROOT/documents/ I tried to access the file for downloading using <a href="#{RAILS_ROOT}/documents/file_name">my file</a>. Rails prepends the controller name to the link so I get <a href=" http://localhost:3000/tasks/show_document/config/.../documents/file_name" What''s the right way to do this?

I ran the gem installer and it seemed to work, but i believe i''m still using an older version. How can i tell what version I''m really using?

At the risk of being wacked for asking what should be obvious.... I have a data frame with one categorical variable "CAT" and several numeric variables. I want to be able to get simple statistics on the numeric variables by level. For example, just as you can use table (CAT) to get the counts, I'd like to be able to get the means and sums by category. If someone could point me

Hi, I'm trying to create a lattice plot with three xyplots in one vertical column. I would like to reduce the vertical space between the charts. My code is below. There seems to be a "between" parameter for lattice.options, but I can't find any examples. Aside from the data setup, the code is below. Can anyone provide an example showing how to reduce the white space between the

Hi i installed the latest ajaxscaffolding gem and generated a scaffold. List works fine. Delete deletes, but the update doesn''t show and the busy icon spins indefinitely. Pressing new or edit also causes the busy icon to spin, but again the ui doesn''t update. my development.log indicates the request was handled and (using firebug) I''m seeing this response: new

I''m selecting data into a controller and sorting it. The code (in the controller) looks like this: def index @assignments = [] tasks = Task.find(:all, :conditions => ["person_id = ? and actual_end_date is null", session[:user].id.to_s ]) issues = Issue.find(:all, :conditions => ["person_id = ? and status <>

I have a class called Duration that represents a unit of time. It has lots of time-related methods and an attribute that represents the duration in seconds. I want to store it in my db. I had a column type of NUMERIC, so if i save it, rails trys to coerce it to a float automagically and fails. I need to display it and store it as a number but treat it in the middle layer as a Duration so I can

hello, I'm trying to predict some values based on a linear regression model. I've created the model using one dataframe, and have the prediction values in a second data frame (call it newdata). There are 56 rows in the dataframe used to create the model and 15 in newdata. I ran predict(model1, newdata) and get the warning: 'newdata' had 15 rows but variable(s) found have 56 rows

I'm trying to classify some observations using lda and I'm getting a strange error. I loaded the MASS package and created a model like so: >train <- mod1[mod1$rand < 1.7,] >classify <- mod1[mod1$rand >= 1.7,] >lda_res <- lda(over_win ~ t1_scrd_a + t1_alwd_a, data=train, CV=TRUE) That works, and all is well until I try to do a prediction for the holdouts:

-- apologies if this is a dup - i got a bounce saying the message was unprocessed. Is there a straightforward way to get a table with percents in the cells rather than counts? I've looked at table, ftable, xtabs, and ctab, which did the conversion but returned the results in a single row without labels. any suggestions are appreciated. thank you.

Hi, I'm trying to do something simple (I think) with lattice graphics. I want to have three xyplots in a single column, where the x axis for the three is a date range and the y axes are numeric. I tried doing the first chart, and ran into a problem. When I enter: xyplot (date ~ count) I get a well formed plot with the date on the y axis, but when I enter: xyplot (count ~ date) I get:
