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.

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

Can''t figure out how duplicate routes are differentiated by rails ... Read routing from inside out and API as well as a few tutorials but still don''t get it!!!

Hi. I swear I found this in the group archives, but now I cannot find this in the group or elsewhere online! In a view I would like to get the current controller name and action that was used to get here. For example, I have a template that I''m using from two different controllers (and four different actions in each controller), such as :controller => "my_view", :action
