Hi All, So I found a helpful web page that explained how I could use things like url_for in my mails: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoUseUrlHelpersWithActionMailer However, I can''t test them properly. The problem is that when I create a controller in my unit tests and pass it into the ActionMailer, it''s not a real controller, set up as a controller is when it is instantiated via an http request, so variables inside the cont...

Hi there, I''ve added an extra bunch of testing features for doing in-browser testing with Selenium, and am having quite a time figuring out how to use url_for with having a controller object present. I''ve tried using ActionController::Base.url_for and ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper.url_for but haven''t been able to get something that works. What I want to be able to do is call url_for(:controller => ''test'', :action => ''index'') and have the URL string returned, anyone know how to do this? Cheers, Jonathan. ------------...

Hi there, I am trying to get something working and its driving me crazy. I have been looking around for solutions to getting view helpers working in models and for the most part I find this solution. Add the following in the model you want to use them in include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper include ActionController::UrlWriter However, when I try something like link_to(polymorphic_path(@node)) I get an error. "can''t convert String into Hash" This is because ''link_to'' uses ''url_for'' which is a method that both UrlHelper and Ur...

I attached a rails helper implementation of the fb_table described here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Facebook_Styles I included testing and comments. I hope you find it useful.

All, If I want my form action to be a secure target, what is the best way to go about doing that? I''m trying to do: <%= start_form_tag( { :protocol => ''https://'', :host => request.host + '':3001'', :action => ''login'' } ) %> in my view, but this doesn''t seem to generate a URL with https:// and my SSL host in

I''m looking for a good way to make all of Rails'' inbuilt helpers available to my custom Helper while I''m testing it. The Helper I''m testing is EditorHelper. EditorHelper itself relies on some of Rails'' inbuilt Helpers, such as JavaScriptHelper and UrlHelper. These are automagically available when called on within an ERB template, but not when called by my EditorHelper inside a unit Test. I can manually include each of the required Helpers in my editor_helper_test file: ... require ''action_view/helpers/url_helper'' module EditorHelpe...

Is there a ruby embedded code replacement for something like this? <a href="#" onclick="window.open(''http://192.168.78.12:3000/portfolio/show/<%= item.id %>'', ''test'', ''width=660, height=500,resizable=no'')"> <%= image_tag item.image_url, :size => ''200x150'' %></a> Thanks, Dan

Hi, How do I make an image that is a clickable link the rails way? Is there a view helper for this? Thanks, Peter

...but rspec or webrat appears to be parsing the output into proper HTML chars instead of escaped characters. I have verified that it escapes properly in the regular browser json response. The relevant RSpec test code is: include ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper it "should automatically sanitize any HTML or script characters" do post :create, :post_id => @post.id, :content => "<h1>Oh Hai!</h1><script>", :user_id => @user.id, :format => &...

...t; "info", :action => "welcome"} then the comparison involving @request.request_uri used in the current_page? method will not correctly deduce that "/" is in fact equal to {:controller => "info", :action => "welcome"} (see below for UrlHelper#current_page?). Thus, current_page? returns false when it should return true (in my case). So the trail that I''ve taken is this: @request.path_parameters is a hash containing the actual page that I''m visiting (after Routes are taken in to account). This is consistent, reg...

I''m writing a Rails plugin that builds up a menu in a view. I''m using *link`_`to* to build the link and *current_page?* to set class="active" on the current page. I''ve *include*d *ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper* so I can use *link`_`to*. To get *current`_`page?* working in the view, I''ve had to inherit the current class (apparently ActionView::Base) and it works perfectly well. Unfortunately, this totally breaks the tests with RSpec. I''m calling *link`_`to* and *current`_`page?* like t...

I am just diving into Rails and I am a bit puzzled by the link_to function. am writing an app to display my photographs in categories. My application layout has a sidebar to show a menu with categories from the categories table in the database (like in taken from the tutorials), to be shown on every page. I managed to get a global @menu_categories object that keeps track of all the categories
