Hi, Since couple a day, I block with the delete of my fixtures in my functionnals test. In my controller, I need test a redirect if there are no value.

I don''t have Rails installed at the moment, I''d like to check myself, but it''s just a simple curiosity. observe_field fits into replacement tags <%= %>, which caught my attention because as far as I know it''s just javascript observing a field and should not stick anything into HTML.

Sorry for all the questions today... Beyond the obvious things--models, controllers, helpers, and other framework-related types--where should I put the code for my own types? For example, I was thinking of writing my own AJAX-friendly paginator, but I don''t know where to put the code for that sort of thing. I would prefer to keep things object-oriented, so I would rather do a lot of

Hi all, I know that in general, view and controller tests should be isolated, such that controller specs don''t test views etc. However, I think I''ve run into a situation that might be an exception. My controller uses render_to_string to produce a chunk of HTML that it passes to a model to be processed. The controller then redirects the user to a different page. The

I''m using render_to_string in an after_filter, which renders a partial that is sent to a web service.

Hey guys. One of my controller actions uses #render_to_string to send back a JSON response. When I try to spec this, Ruby raises a NoMethodError, saying that #render_to_string doesn''t exist in my controller action.

Hello, my question is rails related though it is also somewhat specific to the prawnto plugin (installed latest version as of 2010-03-15). I would ask on a prawnto forum/list if I knew where one was. Anyhow, I''m using rails 2.3.5 (with ruby 1.8.6 patchlevel 111) in an app that is successfully using the prawnto gem (with the prawn gem version 0.7.1). I''ve got a a

it seems that RoR doesn''t use erb or eRuby to generate its output for rhtml? the program erb and the description of eRuby at http://www.eruby.info both said that <% print "foo bar" %> or <% puts "hello" %> will be placed into the output... but currently for RoR, it won''t... only <%= expr %> is doing it and it cannot be print or
