Reviews Wanted. I''ve read the tables of contents and haven''t yet made up my mind. Is one book clearly better than the other? Is one clearly full of bugs? Is one so much further ahead that there is no choice? Are they both so incomplete that I should just wait and only cook real food? Do trains still have dining cars?

The agile book says "You can inspect variables, set values, add other breakpoints, and generally have a good time". This is very sweet and totally useless. For example, I want to see the session variable, the cookies variable and so on. These names are unknown. I think I guess that the things that are available depend on where you put the breakpoint() call. I''ve tried a

...o add a short horizontal line where the mean is for each of the columns, so that my readers can see the results of my significant t test graphically. Any assistance in moving my columns together and adding just a short horizontal line for the mean of each would be great. Sincerely, Dr. Leslie J.

After months of design and development, we''ve launched our second Rails site, http://www.fatwreck.com (assuming your DNS is updated - the pink site is the old one). The site is for legendary punk rock record label, Fat Wreck Chords and it includes a store. The old site was highly trafficked, with millions of page views per month and we expect this one to be also. So far, the server

Every page of my DEPOT on Postgresql rails app now gets an error from postgres-pr about some wild left-join SQL that has nothing to do with my tables: SQL (0.000000) NameError: undefined local variable or method `errors'' for #<PostgresPR::Connection:0x3b200c0>: SELECT a.attname, format_type(a.atttypid, a.atttypmod), d.adsrc, a.attnotnull FROM pg_attribute a LEFT JOIN

The domain registration companies are pushing an add-on called ''Private Registration'' where they keep your email and other personal info secret to prevent spam. Is this a good deal? Is it needed?

I''m new to rails and have a question that seems simple but that I cannot resolve. Is there a way to find the id of the currently logged in user? Thanks, JP -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

The Agile book seems to say I should specify this as follows, probably in the environments.rb: ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS[:database_manager] = CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore BUT the environments.rb file would have me Un-Comment this: config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store Anyway, I''ve tried both, and in both cases it

I am going to start a project from scratch with MySQL. Is it a good idea to go ahead with MySQL 5? Is there any gotcha with that version as of today? -- fxn "We all agree on the necessity of compromise. We just can''t agree on when it''s necessary to compromise." -- Larry Wall in comp.lang.perl

I can''t decide between a2hosting.com, successfulhosting.com, site5.com (which offers 11gb of disk space for $8.77/month -- I''ll never use it), planetargon.com (which offers 1 gb for $11/month), or railsplayground.com (which offers a gigabyte practically for free).

I have a weird problem with creating a new record when using PostgreSQL. From inside script/console ... >> entity = Entity.new >> entity.first_name = "Foo" >> entity.last_name = "bar" >> entity.save Throws an exception due to the following SQL error: duplicate key violates unique constraint. The application was working fine before and suddenly

I''ve been working with rails for a while now. Rails is the second web framework I''ve tried. It blows the doors off catalyst (perl''s best framework). I even just wrote my first plugin (broomstick). Ruby''s ability to meta-program blew me away with it''s ease of use. I''ve been so impressed with the helpers that rails uses to make a lot of

Is there any reason to avoid using postgresql for small web apps? That is, is it''s overhead so large that the lighter MySQL will work substantially better for small apps on small machines? Or are they very similar in performance and configuration? I''ve used MySQL but postgresql has its appeals and I''m wondering if I need to keep MySQL around at all. On the other

I tried to put formatted text out to the browser when it was inside a textarea and got to look at markup. This might just be an HTML question. Is there a construct that will let me bound the size of text display with rows and cols like <textarea> but also let me html-format the internal text? I suppose I could hack up a table to use percentages. Maybe there is a CSS solution where I
