Greetings, I''m in the throws of deploying an app on site5, and I''m getting strange errors. I think I might need to understand how error_messages_for works. I get a pretty standard looking error: " You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! You might have expected an instance of ActiveRecord::Base. The error occured while evaluating nil.errors Extracted

Hey All ! I have a form which contains two models. I would like both models to be validated, but have their validations aggregated on the page. If I do: <%= error_messages_for(:model1) %> <%= error_messages_for(:model2) %> It puts two big validation blocks on the page. I would like all the errors from both models, but only in one validation box. Is this possible ? All my attempts

Hi, I think the columns and table in migration should be able to have an optional "display_name" set manually. Something like: create_table :people, {display_name => "Personne"} do |t| t.column :first_name :string, :display_name => "Prénom". end Let me explain my point of view: Rails is a framework made to write programs in English. You see it when you

Hi, I''m trying to save multiple records of the same model in one go. Which is no problem at all. Problem starts when I want to introduce error handling. The problem is that no record should be saved when one of the records contains an error. I tried it as follows: session[:infos].each do |info| @quest.name = info["name"] unless @quest.valid? @errors_found = true

How can I modify the flash message that is displayed on a validates_* check? I used the :message => "" parameter, but it still gives me an annoying "Test : Please ensure you have entered the test message". I wanted to get rid of the "Test: " and the above "6 errors prohibited this table from being saved" I looked at the source of

I am trying to figure out how to customize the error messages when I use validates_presence_of. I am validating a user name and I use <%= error_messages_for ''user'' %> in my view to display the messages. I know you can customize in the model with :message =>''custom message'', but I am trying to get rid of the first part of the error message which is, 1

Hi all, I am trying to change the default formatting for the error_messages_for. To quote from the ROR manual: /////////// error_messages_for(object_name, options = {}) Returns a string with a div containing all the error messages for the object located as an instance variable by the name of object_name. This div can be tailored by the following options: header_tag - Used for the header of

this is my current code: #notice { border: solid 1px #99cc99; background-color: #e2f9e3; color: #006600; padding: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px; } #notice.error { border-color: #e2f9e3; background-color: #eeaaaa; color: #cc0000; } <% flash.each do |key, msg| %> <%= content_tag :div, flash[:error] || flash[:notice], :id => ''notice'', :class =>

Been playing with merb. One of the helpers I liked in rails was on form validations. Found this was real easy to port over, so I thought I''d share. It doesn''t highlight the field with the error, but it gives that same nice little div on top. Say I had an articles controller def create @article = Article.new(params[:article]) @article.save! redirect

In iteration D.1 on page 109 I am not getting a styled error message box displayed at the top of the checkout as described in the tutorial and I cannot seem to discover where I have erred.

I messed around with Rails for a while last year, but then got busy and had to drop it. However, I now have time again, so I''m starting to play around with a simple database schema to model my extensive collection of photographic material, including equipment, negatives, photographs, etc. I''m running into an issue with using belongs_to/has_one methods.

I''m a belgian Rails user (Dutch is my native language). I wondered if it is possible to translate error messages (generated by validators). I know how to create my own error messages: def method content rescue logger.error(...) flash[:notice] = ''My own error message" redirect_to(...) But where can I find the validator''s .rb files, so I can change them?

Hi, I''m new to ruby and rails. I just created a simple update page and the update works fine if all form fields are filled in. However there is one field that should never be allowed to be blank. So I put this in my model: class Topic < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of :dr_title validates_length_of :dr_title, :minimum => 1 So, when I submit the form with a blank
