similar to: HTTP_REFERER support?

Howdy, I''m using Apache 2.2 + Mongrel with great success, using the sample configs from the Mongrel site. We have some MP3s on the site and recently someone has been stealing them and basically leaching them from the site, linking to them from an off-site location. I''ve been trying to modify my Apache conf to check the referrer and adjust accordingly as below but no

Hi. I would like to set @request.env["HTTP_REFERER"] in an integration test, but due to its nature, I would naturally set this value to the previousle request url. How do I do that. Thanks. Jarl

Hey guys, Ok, basically I coded a ruby on rails CMS to manage a bunch of media files. I am finding that a lot of people are "hot linking" to these media files and would like to prevent this to save bandwidth. Usually in the past, it hasn''t been a problem, I would add something like the following to my .htaccess file RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$

Hello I have a rails 3 app and I am trying to implement the redirect back action at access denied for cancan. If I try this in my application_controller: rescue_from CanCan::AccessDenied do |exception| redirect_to :back end It gives the following error: No HTTP_REFERER was set in the request to this action, so redirect_to :back could not be called successfully. If this is a test, make sure

Hi James, > Isn't this from the query template, ie from the main web page of search > results? (It might make sense from opensearch as well, though.) Yes, you are right; it is the query template. The reason I said opensearch template is that I haven't quite read all sections of the Omega docs and I'm still in the process. Thanks for pointing that out. I'm aiming to cover

How could I make it so that links on my page could link to a controllers action, but if the user manually entered the url, it would redirect them back to the main page? Is this possible? Thank you, -Ben Lisbakken -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

In fact, if I set to false config.cache_classes in

Hi I have an action which saves the originating resource from which it was called, and returns to it later. This is done by setting: session[:return_to] = request.referer ... redirect_to(session[:return_to]) Which works great for GET resources. The problem is that POST variables aren''t kept in request.referer, so this method fails when the originating resource is a a POST.

I have a partial, it''s a shopping cart display, it''s designed to appear on several different pages of my site. One of the buttons on the shopping cart empties the cart, and then I want the calling page to redisplay.

Hi, I''m trying to create a chatboard (I call it my BoomBox, each post is called a "boom") which appears on every page of a weblog I''m building. I have a scaffold-built controller called Boom, and the form to post to the BoomBox is written into my default layout.

Hi, we''re seeing a really weird problem in our production environment. "Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n" is being pre-pended to the RAW_POST_DATA, which makes requests error out. This bug is seen infrequently and *seems* to be browser-related, although I can''t reproduce it using the browser reported in HTTP_USER_AGENT. Set up is a hardware load balancer (NetScaler)

Hello all! I have two views (list_1 and list_2) that show a list of users in two different ways. In the views for these actions there is a link to edit a specific user properties (edit_user). That works fine, except that when I change the user I want to go back to the view that originated the request and not to the default list (list_1). Can anyone help me?
