similar to: gathering all links and transforming them to absolute urls

In both url_for and link_to, the :only_path param can be used to determine whether the link url used is complete with hostname and path, or just has the path (a kind of relative url). However, in url_for it defaults to false (urls with hostnames), and in link_to it defaults to true ( urls without hostnames, just paths). Is there any reason for this discrepency? To me, it violates the principle

Dear R help. Hello. I want to fit the model of "FIGARCH" on TimeSeries data. So I need to use the code of "garchOxFit". I don't know how to estimate FIGARCH model. Please let me know which package I need and what is procedure of estimating FIGARCH by R. I think I need this code! > garchOxFit(formula.mean = arma(0, 0), formula.var = garch(1,1), series =

Mechanize is great! It''s better than anything I was expecting to be out there, and the syntax is really nice. I had a bit of a problem though -- following URLs with commas. The code in to_absolute_uri works great for spaces, but some pages I was working on had URLs with unescaped commas that URI rejected when I tried to click() on them. So I changed the first statement in

I wonder - do we have some helper/processor/gem to automatically convert all URLs in a passed string to their canonical equivalent - i.e. with the protocol, host and such prepended based on the Rails environment. Super-duper infty for RSS feeds (I hate their requirement for canonical URLs everywhere). -- Julian ''Julik'' Tarkhanov please send all personal mail to me at

What options do I need to provide to link_to so that it generates truly absolute URLs (i.e. including protocol://host:port/path)? It seems that even when I provide :host and :protocol arguments to url_for that it suppresses these when they match the current request.

I''m trying to expand on a blog tutorial and one thing I can''t figure out is how to use anchors within pages. For example say I have sections on a page with anchors like <a name=section1"</a> through <a name=section6"</a>. Using older non-rails methods I would construct urls that contains the pound symbol and anchor name in the url such as

Here''s what I mentioned on ruby-talk a little while ago. Basically mechanize 0.5.4 could match a link on a regexp regardless of children in that link. 0.6.0 can''t. Here''s a demonstration, but I can''t get require_gem to properly load 0.5.4 for some reason. I keep getting "uninitialized constant WWW (NameError)". Under 0.5.4 it will return

Hi all, Trying to figure out a quick way to do something. I have a yahoo groups list, and it has listings that look like this: </td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="ygrp-g"> <span class="ygrp-nowrap"> <em><a href="/group/freecycledc/">freecycledc</a></em> </span> <a

We recently received the following bug report for the python-markdown implementation: > The "&" are escaped in URLs. > > An example: > [Link](http://www.site.com/?param1=value1&param2=value1) > > Should output: > <a href="http://www.site.com/?param1=value1&param2=value1">Link</a> > > Currently outputs: > <a

First it strips /sysroot and then finds common prefix aligned on slashes. Next it produces ../ for each slash found in common prefix and concatenates them with the rest of resolved link.

I THINK I've found a bug in rsync. When running an rsync daemon, absolute sym-links are not created correctly on the daemon end; the leading 'slash' is stripped off. To 'fix' this behavior, the following 3 changes can be made (to version 2.5.5): flist.c:63 add: extern int am_daemon; flist.c:538 (was 537) modify: if (sanitize_paths && !am_daemon) { config.h:316

In previous discussion here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-December/thread.html#00027 we preferred to use ssh://... URLs instead of server:/path. However the URL approach had the problem that the user had to replace spaces with %20 in the paths. However since using space gives an error, we can replace spaces with %20 safely in code, thus removing one obstacle from users.

Hi all, I''m trying to make pretty URLs using routes for some of my actions across different controllers. For example: http://www.example.com/london -> http://www.example.com/articles/show_by_name/london But if the id ''about'' couldn''t be found, then to search for it as another action, this time from the ''branch'' controller.

Hi I am having issues with getting my pretty urls to work. routes.rb: map.connect '':user'' , :controller => ''front'' , :action => ''list'' , :filter => ''user'' front_controller.rb: def list @advert_pages, @adverts = paginate :adverts, :per_page => 10 @user =

Is that possible, and would you know how I can do that? I''m creating individual pages for users based on their first and last names. In my routes.rb, I have: map.client '':user_full_name'', :controller => ''user'', :action => ''individual_user_page'' Then in my controller, I have: def individual_user_page @user =

I''m helping with a gem that is going to published under the contentfree project on rubyforge (http://rubyforge.org/projects/contentfree/). The gem is called "blackbook" and basically it will go and fetch your contacts from the major webmail providers. So far Gmail, Yahoo!, and MSN have been completed. We are trying to finish up with fetching contacts from AOL Webmail. However

Page caching of urls with spaces in them using WEBrick and Mongrel is broken in Edge Rails (and Rails 1.1.6, where I started). This is due to the dispatch flow of control in both servers converting ''+'' in requested paths into '' '' chars, whereas the page caching system writes cache files for URLs with spaces in them out as encoded ''+''
