similar to: link_to method throws a url_for error

Howdy Folks, I want to use form_for to allow a user to submit a form that contains two instances of the same model. They are entering calendar dates and I want them to be able to submit 2 from the same form. Ok, so, using form_for, what is the best way to do this? form_for seems to be setup to handle a single instance in that it wants a name for the variable, etc... Has someone else done this?

So I''ve used the helper test plugin, and also tried some things from Rails Recipes, and basically neither seems to work for cases where a helper does anything related to link_to/url_for, and this includes calling named_routes. This is obviously an issue, as a common use for helpers is to refactoring something like this: <%= link_to "text that changes slightly", :id => id

After successfully getting my "productized" sites into production, I decided it was time to get the development environment working (i.e. through "script/server --site=foo"). However, when I go to run a site under Webrick, I get two major errors: (0) Routes don''t seem to work properly, specifically the root-level route gets ignored. Instead,

I am new to ActionMailer and having a problem. I want to be able to send a notification e-mail when a new item is added to a list. Sending an e-mail to the right people on creation is working fine. However, I want to include in the e-mail a link to the application so that users can click on the link in the e-mail and immediately be taken to the show view for the new item. When I add a link_to

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

This may be a bonehead question, but when I have some error in a view I''m testing, the server spits out a generic page: "Application error Change this error message for exceptions thrown outside of an action (like in Dispatcher setups or broken Ruby code) in public/500.html" This is pretty unhelpful when I''m debugging. Is there an error log for Rails overall

Subject says it all: rake doesn''t know about db:fixtures:dump. When I try, I get this: Don''t know how to build task ''db:fixtures:dump'' I thought this was a standard feature that ships with rake- any idea why it''s missing, and how I can reinstall it? Here''s the environment: Ruby version 1.8.4 (powerpc-darwin8.6.0) RubyGems

I''m using a db to log two types of events, link events and tag events. At first I had two tables, link_events & tag_events, but this seemed not very DRY because the only column that was different between them was link_id and tag_id respectively. So I made these tables: events: id int user_id int objtype_id int (holds ''1'' or ''2'' depending

Hi, url_for has a nice way of using the current ''params'' object to fill in default parameters in a route. For example, map.connect '':controller/:action/:id/'' with <%= url_for :action => ''my_action'' %> will redirect to the current controller. All very good. However, I sometimes want a url_for() which includes current parameters

When I try to use url_for within a component I get the following: NoMethodError in LinkController#get_links undefined method `url_for'' for Navbar::LinkController:Class The API docs show url_for as a public method of ActionController::Base. Since my component is derived from ActionController::Base shouldn''t url_for be available within the class? Any ideas? Thanks! -

Hi, In my controller, I do something like this: MyMailer.deliver_signup_notification(url_for(:subdomain => account.subdomain, :controller => ''hello'')) And a few lines later: redirect_to :action => ''index'' Much to my confusion, the redirect routes me to the subdomain used in the url_for. I''ve tried redirect_to :action =>

i am having a very weird problem with url_for.. i have been using this for several version of rails, but recently, i had a problem.. it seems as though url_for is causing the results to be returned in lower case.. if there are uppercase letters in the arguments, they result is all lower case. obviously, this is a problem as the urls don''t work anymore. the other oddity is that when i

Hi there, I''ve added an extra bunch of testing features for doing in-browser testing with Selenium, and am having quite a time figuring out how to use url_for with having a controller object present. I''ve tried using ActionController::Base.url_for and ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper.url_for but haven''t been able to get something that works. What I want to be able

Having a bit of an issue with url_for The current page I''m on has a named route as follows: map.some_page ''page/:id/:range'', :action => ''the_action'' All looks fairly normal. I have an url_for on this page to make a link to another page as so: url_for(:controller=>''other'', :action=>''display'', :id=>5,

I noticed something strange in my app today. It appears that the extra canvas path appended in url_for is back but only for controllers that are not resources. Here is an example I have in my site: campaigns is a resource checkout is not # With the canvas false flag (rdb:1) @controller.url_for(:controller => ''campaigns'', :action => ''show'', :id

Hi All I am just adding some basic e-mail notices to my Rails app using ActionMailer, and have one small issue. I want to provide a confirmation URL to users who sign up for an account. I can obviously just hardcode the URL and append the confirmation code to it, but I''d much rather be able to use something like: url_for(:controller => ''authentication'', :action
