similar to: Setting up Mongrel and Apache , some direction needed

I can''t believe I''m back again with another rest question. I did go through the peepcode podcast. I thought though you can have multiple nested resources, is that not true ? I have this set up map.resources :candidates do |candidate| candidate.resources :canbackgrounds candidate.resources :canpositions end I just coded up teh canpositions and now all

My observe_form is basically totally limp. I think it should update without hitting submit button but even if I hit it , it doesn''t change (doesn''t seem to post the data). Can anyone please take a look and see if I"m doing something wrong. TIA Form: <% start_form_tag({:action => "livesearch"}, :id => "asearch") %>

As an example - you have a select list of all the U.S. states and the user can make multiple choices. How do you grab all those choices into the database and they would be used for queries. I was reading up on serialize() but the warning in AWDWR is that it doesn''t work well for queries. Also composites / aggragates seems a bit much, maybe not. I know in the past I''ve used

I have just open sourced my Content Management System called Seymore. Rather than having a separate administration section for managing content, content management functions are available throughout the site so users are able to contextually and comfortably manage the content. I am looking for any and all feedback. Please, either checkout the latest source from subversion, grab version 0.1 from

I''ve set up an observer form, it is not working nor throwing error at least in loading the page. The Firefox javascript console is showing this error: Error: missing } after property list Source File: http://localhost:3000/ajaxsearch/list Line: 165, Column: 45 Source Code: hide(''roller'')}, parameters:''Form.serialize(''asearch'')='' +

I''m running script/console but keep getting the message that irb.bat is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. If it means anything I am running instant rails. I can invoke irb straight forward. TIA Stuart -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I''m using Rails Recipes to create a login form but instead of username and password, my setup is firstname, lastname, password. I seemed to be gramatically challenged and not sure how to set up the parameter list. Can anyone offer up a suggestion. The book shows the method starting like: if request.post? user = User.find(:first, :conditions => [''username = ?'' ,

I know this shouldn''t be in the view but to test the code it is. Anyway if I do just session[user] I get back the user id (the id from the user table) which is good. However this code does not work. <% a = session[:user] %> <% uname = User.find(:first, :conditions => id = a) %> <%= @uname %> TIA Stuart

I really hope this is not a bad question (as in he''s abusing the list). However I could use a little direction (even though I''m reading books, tutorials) Right now I''m getting a undefined method `category'' for 4:Fixnum The specific lines from the rhtml file are: <td><%= link_to position.category_id.category, :action => "show", :id =>

I have a text field and want to let users insert multiple values - If I type one two , the sql statement is ''1 2'' if i put a comma between it turns it to 1\,\2 I need it to do ''1'',2'' I tried some regex but no luck because whatever I do to format I''m getting back slashes. Anything ? Stuart -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_ambient

Sorry - working on a simple tutorial but something is throwing me here. I''m supposed to get a Time.now() print to the page but it''s not working and I can''t figure out why. No errors are thrown my the page shows: Howdy, world! My name is Stuart Felenstein. This was verified at . So no time stamp showing. I went into IRB , did a Time.now() and it''s working

I asked the other day about this problem but haven''t received a response. Trying again: I just downloaded 1.6 and can''t get a simple draggable to work, which is weird. I know it''s not my browser since the demos are working. Here is my simple code. I''ve also had the "new Draggable" between the select tags. Didn''t change anything.

I''m digging around and googling but can''t seem to find what I think is a simple thing. All I''m trying to do is insert data in a migration into a table, using regular SQL statements. LIke this: class AddStateData < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up INSERT INTO states values ('''',''Alaska''); INSERT INTO states values

I''m having a particularly difficult time undersanding one lesson from this book. This is in relation ot how one would grab "search" parameters from web forms to search for records in the database. I understand the :conditions part of find() but am confused on the code: 1- name = params[:name] pos = Order.find(:all, :conditions => ["name = ? and pay_type =

Sorry, but I have tried signing up for the RadRails list and never can get a confirmation email. I think it may not exist. Anyway, I created a project using just cli, now I''m trying to import the project with no success. I choose the directory and radrails just sits there not enabling the okay button Sound familiar ? Maybe I''m doing something wrong. Stuart

This is kind of frustrating (but no doubt helpful in the long run) that after following along and coding , and d/l the code the same error is appearing. For those who are familiar with the depot app, I''ve run into a problem after fixing the cart to reflect quanitites. I worked through the intended error messages but now have this appearing: SyntaxError in StoreController#add_to_cart

Is either sortable or drag and drop doable for table elements ? I looked at the wiki and didn''t see anything. Noticed the demos and such are done with <ul><li> ''s I''m wondering about <td> ''s ?

I''m thinking of experimenting with some currency conversion. However, I''d like the conversions to be in synch with the current rates. Anyone know (and this maybe out in left field) if there is some online (perhaps xml) or other data stream I can connect with in my code to output values based on user selection ? TIA Stuart

And if so, I''m going a bit bonkers here and need to watch it again, but if I remember correctly, scaffold_resource generator was used, but for nested resources the show and index were removed from the controller ? Is this correct as far as what happened in the demonstration and if so is it correct as far as rest goes ? TIA Stuart -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_ambient

I''m having a problem getting the text area the size I want it to be. In my view at the top I have this init calls <script type="text/javascript" > tinyMCE.init({ mode: "textareas", theme: ''advanced'', theme_advanced_toolbar_location: ''top'' }); </script> Then in my form: <%= text_area
