similar to: Less verbose than time_ago_in_words method?

HI I don''t understand what happen .. if I use the script/console : >> include ActionView::Helpers::DateHelper => Object >> include GLoc => Object >> time_ago_in_words(Time.now, include_seconds = false) => "moins d''une minute" I get the correct answer.. but I I write in my view <%= time_ago_in_words(Time.now, include_seconds = false)

I''ve found an issue when trying to use the time_ago_in_words and distance_of_time_in_words from action view''s date_helper.rb Using SQL Server, I have a datetime column that gets returned as: "2007/02/21 09:54:00". When I pass this to time_ago_in_words (which just passes on to distance_of_time_in_words) it miscalculates the difference as "9 hours" (...um yeah,

Look at your 1.day.from_now and see if it''s like this: Sun, 12 Oct 2008 02:45:42 UTC +00:00 If you also have the "UTC +00:00", it means that you timezone is the GMT (and I think that it isn''t your real timezone). For example, my timezone is 3 hours after the GMT, so the right timezone would be something like this: Sat Oct 11 23:48:41 -0300 2008 At your

I am a total RoR virgin, and took my first steps this weekend into the Ruby world. A lot of sites I create need to be as SEO friendly as possible, particularly for google. Before I delve any further, can anyone tell me how friendly the dynamic URLs or if there is the usual rewrite mod for rugby? Thanks Mike -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve noticed that it is possible to pass javascript unaltered through the sanitize function using CSS. For example: sanitize( "<style type=''text/css''>body{background-image:url(''javascript:window.alert(1)'') }</style>" ) IE will execute the javascript. Firefox will not. I haven''t tried it with any other browsers.

Hi, I''ve got a problem on which I''ve spent many hours, and I can''t get a clue on what is happening... I hope someone here will be able to help me.

Hi All, I have been using Ruby and Rails for only a few short days and I am loving it so far. I have a couple of questions relating to a specific project I am working. 1.

Hiall, Is it possible to organize my model files below app/models into subfolders? E.g. I would like to put admin related models into their own subfolder. This kind of structuring works for controllers and views (scaffolding creates the right subfolder-model mappings), but app/models always stays flat. I''d really like to be able to group my code into logical, well packages :-) Yes, I
