similar to: how to? link_to with a rel="tag"

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

Pretty simple question right? can''t seem to figure it out. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I think the link_to helper method is quite confusing with its arguments order: link_to body, url link_to "Click me", @person Why is it thay way round? I want to make a "link to [the] person", so I would expect the order to be: link_to @person, "Click me" It reads much more natural. You don''t "link to [the] body", you "link to

So far we have... -- the various tutorials which are

I managed to get a global @menu_categories object that keeps track of all the categories
