Hi Railers, I''m wondering if anyone has found a nice solution to the problem of validating dates to prevent things like 29th February 2005, or 31st September and so on? I see it was discussed before... http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/2005-March/003804.html ...but with no particularly ideal solution... http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/2005-March/003815.html

Hi there, I''ve got the following in my model: validates_format_of :postcode, :with => /^([a-zA-Z]{1,2}[0-9]{1,2} [0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{2})$/, :message => "is not valid", :if => :postcode ... but it''s not working - it always insists on validation, even if postcode is empty. Basically, the postcode field is optional, but if it''s filled in, I want to

Hi Railers, I''m looking for something to do asynchronous encryption - where the encryption and decryption keys are different. This is for a scenario where I want to be able to store some information in the database that can only be decrypted in a different physical location using a secret private key (which will not be stored on the machine doing the encrypting). I''m trying

I can''t duplicate this problem on my local machine, but also can''t find any mentions of it on the Gmane archive, so thought I''d just throw in a quick mention in case anyone else comes across it. On Textdrive, using gem rails 1.1, in an app that works fine on my local machine, I get the following error in my production.log: "uninitialized constant

I''ve got an error that''s only happening on my live webserver, so wanted to test on my local machine in the production environment. On my local machine, I tried to run... script/server -e production ... but get: server: invalid option: -e Has this been disabled or renamed in 1.1? I''m running gem Rails 1.1, Ruby 1.8.4, and the server is Lighttpd 1.3.16. Thanks,

Hi Railers, For some time now I''ve been looking for a decent Rails equivalent of PHP''s "htmlentities" command, because ERB''s html_escape (or more commonly called as just "h", eg. <%=h @somevariable %> ) just doesn''t go far enough for me. Back in PHP land, I actually had an extended version of the htmlentities command to deal with

Hi Railers, I''m past considering myself a noob in Rails land - I think what I''m up against here is more of a bug or an anomaly that I''m unaware of (or that has changed in a recent version). I had a fully working validates_confirmation_of :email_address field in my app - was one of the first things I set up, extremely simple, been working for a long time. Then one

Hi Everyone, Just thought I''d post some details of an interesting little quirk I''ve found with page caching. For a site I''ve just built for a small music festival, there are a number of artist profiles. I''m storing the artists in my database, but using caches_page to speed things up when displaying the details to the public. I''ve also made it so

I''m playing with XML using Builder but seem to be having some trouble in Explorer 6. My sample code: xml = Builder::XmlMarkup.new xml.instruct! xml.instruct! ''xml-stylesheet'', :href=>''/stylesheets/style-xml.css'', :type=>''text/css'' xml.declare! ''DOCTYPE'', :html, :PUBLIC, "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0

I know that I''m doing something wrong, but I can''t figure out what. I''ve looked at every wiki and tutorial I can find on feedtools but I still can''t get my rss feed working. Here''s my code. feed = FeedTools::Feed.new feed.entries << FeedTools::FeedItem.new feed.entries[0].author.name = "Charlie Bowman" feed.entries[0].title =

Hi Railers, I have a scenario to figure out that I''ve never yet come to a good answer for, and I''m hoping some of you can shed some light. The owner of website I built a while back (in PHP) would like to extend the capabilities of the website to be fully CMS driven, with multiple language versions (French, Spanish etc.) available in future. At the moment, a few parts of

Why is my rxml view being wrapped by the rhtml template in views/ layouts? I was experimenting with REST, I had a nice little test program with one table: ''resources''. Here''s what the show method looks like: def show @resource = Resource.find(params[:id]) respond_to do |accepts| accepts.html accepts.xml end end I have a show.rhtml

Does anyone have any existing code for a double opt-in mailing list system based on Rails? Wouldn''t be hard for me to make one, but I don''t want to reinvent the wheel if someone else has already done it and published the code somewhere? It''s for one-way mailshots only. I don''t need to do much more than collect email addresses of interested people - if the

Well, my entry for the 24-hour Rails Day competition is here: http://yubnub.org . It''s a web app called YubNub that implements the grandiose idea of a "command line for the Web OS". Type "gim porsche 911" to do a Google Image search for Porsche 911 cars. Type "random 1000" for a random number between 1 and 1000. Type "tts David Heinemeier Hansson is

I''m getting strange errors attempting to test an rxml view with assert_tag. I can see that what the view is producing is correct but I get an error like "ignoring attempt to close foo with bar" (where bar is a tag which is meant to be nested in foo). Is asssert_tag meant for xml, or just html? Cheers, Robert. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Mhhh. I am streaming from a 8mbit adsl connection so it should be fast enough. I tried streaming with media player, it's working for 24 hours now, doesn't seem to have the problem, is my winamp 5.03 broken? Or is winamp broken in general? :) Thanks for the help.

I want to produce google maps KML files which are baiscally XML files with a KML extention. I''m using restful routes and respond_to. The best way I''ve found is to use respond_to do |format| format.kml { render :action => "kml" } will render a kml.rxml template I have but really I want to have action.rxml rendered for kml files. Is there are way to acheive this,

Hi all, I wanted to write my own generator. What would be a good starting point. Is there any documentation on this, Best practices, etc?

I''m having a problem in Rails 2 where respond_to is always rendering the RXML view even in the HTML rendering response. Can anyone tell me why this might be happening? Here''s a code snippet: respond_to do |accepts| accepts.html accepts.xml { render :action => ''show.rxml'', :layout => false} end If I change this to the following it works fine:

Hi, I have the following in my controller: def show @quest = Quest.find(params[:id]) respond_to do |format| format.html format.xml end end And in my routes: map.resources :quests I have two views for this action, quests/show.rhtml and quests/show.rxml. Now what I would expect as a response to ''/quests/1.xml'' is that Rails sends, as XML, the rendered rxml
