How do I do multiple layouts for a single controller: I am aware I can do... render(:layout =>''mylayout'') for individual actions, however this becomes a multiple render problem. I tried this... layout "mylayout", :except => [:myaction, :myotheraction] layout "myotherlayout", :only => [:myaction, :myotheraction] However that doesn''t

JavaScript doesn''t (yet) have a notion of classes. Prototype.js just adds a suitable convention for implementing them. It provides a way to create a new class by extending a base class using Object.extend, but it doesn''t handle method inheritance. There are ways of doing implementing this through traversing the chain of prototypes, but I''m not sure they are

I''m having problems with class variables..

Hi, I have some models such as: class User < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_authentic end class Admin < User end class Superadmin < Admin end And some controllers such as: class UserSessionsController < ApplicationController def new @user_session = UserSession.new end def create @user_session =

How to create a super class based on ActiveRecord::Base? For example: class ParentRecord < ActiveRecord::Base end class ChildRecord < ParentRecord end Rails always asks for ''parent_records'' table. Which has absolutely no need to exist at all. It''s intentionally made as a super class to be inherited. Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m trying to understand how best to use inheritance and wonder if Rail''s Single Table Inheritance model too restricting. I have a model Companies who provide 1+ Services (HABTM relationship). I assume the best way to represent this is with a series of child models representing each type of service : ServiceType < Company. I want to return lists of companys for each

Hello, I''ve got a problem with the inheritance as soon as I try to use it in a model. I''ve got plenty of items which can share a lot of code, so I created a class "Item", which inherits from ActiveRecord::Base, but because it''s not a "real item" but an interface, I set it abstract (writing abstract_class? method). Then I have all the differents

I am sure that I do not have the answer to your question - but I would like to add to your views regarding the S4-issue. I've been involved in the gRbase package for graphical modelling in R. The first version was implemented in S4 but now we have made a roll-back to using S3 methods. While, I can see that S3 is not really comprehensive enough for 'proper' object oriented

Is there any way to wire the .rhtml files in app/views into Rails'' Single Table Inheritance mechanism? So given: class Bar < Foo The STI mechanism is generating the objects correctly when it hydrates them out of the db, but when it goes to rendering pages, it pulls everything from app/views/foo and doesn''t touch app/views/bar. I can of course hook in manual type-checking

Hello. I''ve read about examples on inheritance with rails. Here is an example: http://juixe.com/techknow/index.php/2006/06/03/rails-single-table-inheritance/ The way is to add a type field in the table. So if I have an Animal class with an attribute name, I can inherit from this class like: Dog < Animal, Cat < Animal, and so on. With the type field in the table I can do Dog.all,

Hey all, I was playing w/ Thomas Fuch''s Localization module (thanks Thomas!), and just realized how hard is to localize an application in Rails :-) The Localization module works nice, but the problem is the error messages. Its not that good to keep the application in [your idiom] and the error messages in english. I saw the other threads about it, specially the ones that recommends
