similar to: ActiveRecord Previous/Next Record

Hi, Quick question (which means that I think there should be an easy answer)... When I am in the "show" view, I''d like to add 2 links, one for previous and one for next record so that the user can go on to the next "result" without having to go back to the ''list'' of results. However, I can''t find my way about this problem :-S

Hello, Is there some built-in facility for fetching the Previous or Next record from a table? Assume the command find_by_name has been issued, and the variable @name contains the name "John Doe". I''m looking for something like find_next(@name) and find_previous(@name). What''s a good way to pursue if one has to roll their own methods? Thanks for the help, gk --

A quick note about acts_as_modified, acts_as_ordered and validates_date_time. If you are using any of those plugins you should update them. They''ve all had improvements/bug fixes. Also, acts_as_modified is now being maintained by both Chris Hall and myself. http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/rails/plugins/acts_as_ordered http://svn.viney.net.nz/things/rails/plugins/acts_as_modified

Hi, I''m having some problems using ActiveRecord to update records in a sqlite database.

This plugin gives ActiveRecord the ability to do stricter date checking. Example: class Person < ActiveRecord::Base validates_date :date_of_birth end This will ensure that date_of_birth is a *valid* date. The date can be set initially as a string in any of the following formats: "2006-01-01" "1 Jan 06", or "1 Jan 2006" "1/1/06" # Day /

I really like how Active Record logs the SQL that is executed inside of rails. Is there a way to get the SQL output when using Active Record outside of rails?

Hi all! I have come into a strange issue in Rails that I am hoping someone can shed some light. To make a very long story short, I have been researching how to override ActiveRecord::Base#read_attribute and write_attribute to perform security checks at the model level (influenced by the ModelSecurity generator). Shortly after implementing some code to check this behavior, I began to

Hey all, I got annoyed recently that I couldn''t specifiy multiple chunks of test setup and teardown code that get executed for each test. You''re currently limited to just one setup method (unless I''m much mistaken). Anyway, I just wrapped up my solution in a plugin. The answer: use blocks! class Test::Unit::TestCase # This is overridden by the subclass and will
