We are currently doing some development on a variety of branches that each have their own set of migrations (gee, database changes on a branch? how novel). The problem is with this strictly linear numbering of the migrations and these alternate branches. Let''s suppose I have branches/foo that adds two migrations 024_add_foo.rb and 025_refine_foo.rb and then another branches/bar

Has anyone profiled the performance of RedCloth versus BlueCloth? I''m starting to realise that RedCloth is a more mature ruby project, although Markdown the syntax maybe more widespread than Textilize. Apart from the syntax, does anyone feel they have a preference, in terms of performance or number of outstanding bugs? Many thanks in advance. CHEERS> SAM

Morning/Afternoon/Evening All, Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on forwarding requests to invalid images (ie images that result in a 404 error) via routes.rb or a similar method?

Hi, I am starting a project in rails and I wish to change scaffolding. I''ve already done some changes like prepare all texts for locale.

We are creating a website for creating and maintaining communities. When members of a community are listed, we show their summary in a TABLE. So we have written a _member.rhtml partial to show this summary for that member.

Hi, Has anyone come across a Ruby mathematical expression parser, capable of parsing out token, replacing them with values then executing the mathematical formula? Nothing too heavy, A * (44/12) * ... etc. where A is can be replaced with a value.

Does anybody use and prefer Redcloth (or bluecloth, which appears to be alpha)? Does it affect performance much? Is there a way to get it to automatically process templates without having to call textilize? Thanks, Joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

After drawing many virtual blank stares in the IRC channel and finding zero results on the wiki for ''sweeper'' I''m left to wonder whether these are actually officially supported, or are on their way toward being deprecated.

Hello all: I have been using PHP for quite a bit and am beginning to learn more about RoR. One thing I used to to in PHP scripts (views in particular) was to have a tag such as: <base href="http://<?php echo $_SERVER[''HTTP_HOST''] . $_SERVER[''SCRIPT_NAME'']; ?>" /> so that URL rewriting would not throw off the paths to images, css,
