Hi everyone, I''m working on creating a site that functions similar to digg.com (please no "no more digg clones" remarks please! :) ). One thing I really like about digg is there URLs are very nice to read and I would like to emulate that without having a lot of actions spread out all over my application. So in my app I have three main resources: Users, Tags, and Items

I''m not sure this is the appropriate community to get objective unbiased feedback on this issue, but I suppose it''s worth a gander... Here''s my question: Is it possible to write a massively scalable application intented for millions of users (i.e. Yahoo, Google, MySpace, etc.) using Ruby on Rails? I''m sure apps like these can be built, but can they scale to

If I have a list of items, how can I search some item in the list, by some criteria or something else? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve been experimenting with Rails over the past couple of days and have come across something that seems harder than it should be. In previous frameworks I have used (WebObjects, php) a full search page (which leads into a list view populated with search results) was part of the CRUD that was either dynamically or statically created after specifying table/object schema. In

Hi, I would like to do something simple yet I''m confused. Lets say I have a table with 2 fields: rank, updated_at. I would like to show all records matching this condition: rank = rank ? (Time.now.to_time ? Updated_at.to_time) As you can see this is supposed to be a calculation on the field. How do I write a query to show this? I''ve tried with_scope, and regular find but did not

I''m trying to tidy up my first rails app, and want to customize the action ''show'' (created by generating a scaffold). It''s a recipe database, and some of the fields are not required when submitting a new recipe, such as the "History" field. However, when I want to show that recipe, I don''t want the column name "History" to show if

Hi there, I''m currently creating a simple (at least so I thought) structure of user favorites. Basically users can add certain ''objects'' to their list of favorites.

Hi all My site has news entries, it has a party calendar and it has a blog. Now I''d like to create a commenting system that in fact is quite simple, but I wanna use it for all these 3 types of content. My question: how can I do that?

In testing my application on different browsers, I''ve noticed a few differences:- a password_field :size=>20 is smaller than a text_field :size=>20 on Internet Explorer. They are the same on Firefox and Safari. makes my login box look silly. the same can be seen on the login screen for this forum. the password box is a little shorter on IE6. more annoying however is I have

Dear all, What would be the best way to track who is online? Should I just add a filter to all my controllers to track the last time each user commits an action? Then I can deduce that whoever is active in the last 5 mins is online. Additionally, I can be more sophisticated and track the actual actions each user commits. So I can have features like Digg Spy. Or is there an already pre-built

I don't understand why so many government sites fail to provide some sort of feed to their daily bulletins. What I am venting about in specific are the Canadian CRTC and FCC sites, every day I have to go to the website and when I reach the content, usually it isn't even HTML but a Word or PDF file. So finally today I decided to do something about it and wrote a little app that scrapes

Hello! People from International Free Software Forum (the largest brazilian event about FLOSS) have done it two times in a row. They've put online the whole video coverage for this year's event (also online are the videos from last year). It's almost 300 hours in Ogg Theora. I think it's worth a mention in theora.org website. It's a shame there's no subtitles, for most of
