Back in 2.1.1 everything was sweet: Loading development environment (Rails 2.3.3) >> include ActionView::Helpers::NumberHelper => Object >> number_to_currency(12.3) >> "$12.30" Then I upgraded to 2.3.2 and: Loading development environment (Rails 2.3.3) >> include ActionView::Helpers::NumberHelper => Object >> number_to_currency(12.3) >> 12.3 Woops!

I doubt this is the correct place to post this but I was unable to post to rails-core so I am posting here. Please let me know if there is a better place to send this. NumberHelper.number_to_human_size returns ''KB'' as the abbreviation for kilobyte. According to the SI standards kilobyte should be abbreviated ''kB''. I know this a v ery minor issue but my boss is concerned enough about it that I have to write a new human_size helper... Tha...

Using File.size(myfile) I can get the size of the uploaded file in _bytes_. Does anybody know of a function to convert bytes into a more human readable format? If I had a wish list for a "file_size_in_words()" function, it would do this: 10752 bytes becomes "10.5 Kilobytes". 2213814 bytes becomes "2.1 Megabytes". 238 bytes becomes "Less Than 1 Kilobyte".

Hello I''ve encountered a little problem with zeros using the decimal data type Specifying a scale of 3 and inserting a number with 3 zeros after the point (for example 12345.000) it gets correctly stored in the database, but rails insists to show me the number only with the first zero after the point (12345.0) There is a way to tell rails to not truncate at the first zero?

Hi, good day to us all, i was wondering if there was some kind of method for floats to change them into percentages...i looked up some functions in ruby-doc, but didn''t find anything suitable. is there such a thing? thanks, harp -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I was wondering if this is possible. I have a model (Item) that contains products. These products have prices that I''d like to format using number_to_currency. Rather than doing this several times inside the view, I thought it might be nice to do it once inside the model. The item table has an field called regular_price which holds a currency amount. I would like to do something

Any ideas why I would get an error in a RJS helper on view helpers such as number_to_currency. Example: # my_template.rjs page.help_me # my_helper for my_controller def help_me number_to_currency(10) end I have also tired page.number_to_currency but that doesn''t work either. Cheers, Nicholas

Hi Gurus, I have a class, specified in models cart.rb, which doesn''t inherit from anything--it''s just a container class Cart ... I just discovered I can''t call number_to_currency in that class. Any idea how to "include" it in my code? I tried ActionView.number_to_currency without luck. I could kill a few lines of non-DRY regexp code in cart.rb if I could

I have just started with Ruby and Rails and am still greatly confuse, finding the usual tutorials not much help. What I want to do is take two numbers from my database, multiply them together and display them in a list with a comma for the thousands separator. This would be very easy to do in a spreadsheet, so I assumed it would be easy to do in Ruby on Rails but I can''t work out how. I

Running "rake assets:clobber assets:precompile" will generate files like "application-xxx.css" with incorrect urls after upgrading to Rails 4. For example url(/fields/xxx.png) when it should be url(/assets/fields/xxx.png). For some unknown reason it worked once in development mode, but after running rake assets:clobber I can''t get it to work again... Any ideas

...#39;'t be coerced into fixnum" So, I found this patch: https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/7c8a5f5759a0c63945d133280fb78deaa86b65b9 Now to apply it, I had to create a file: lib/number_helper_overrides and put the override code in there: module ActionView module Helpers module NumberHelper def number_to_human(number, options = {}) #the code in here bla bla end end end end then in environment.rb I put: require "number_helper_overrides" Is this the proper way to override in rails 3? If so, then should I really need to put the "require"...

Hi all, I have a little function called format_price(price) that simply formats the argument as a dollar sign, dollar amount, dot and penny amount. Then, in a .rhtml file, I could do this: <%= format_price(item.unit_price * item.quantity) %> But where do I put the format_price() function definition? The app couldn''t find it in app/controllers/application.rb. Where do I put it

Let say I have the read_cookie() method. Because it deals with the response object putting this method in the /lib directory doesn''t fit nicely because I
