I have a rails app that is displaying posts, I am having it generate each post with its own div like "post_19", "post_20", etc. I could make it so it puts another div around that div (i need the individual post div''s for deletion with AJAX) but would rather not.

I''ve been trying to use Rails on a database where the biggest datawarehouse-style table doesn''t have a primary key. It really doesn''t make sense and just adds extra unnecessary space. I do have, however, a column that I normally use to search on (IP) that returns many rows. The table also references several other tables through rails-friendly foreign keys. Simple AR

I have a model with a datetime field called start_date. I''d like to do a find on the model so that it returns only records with the start_date equal to the current day. Something like this: @foos = Foo.find(:all, :conditions => //?? start_date equal to today''s date ??// ] ) Thanks in advance for any help. -------------- next part

Hopefully the subject line didn''t scare you. That said... I have a simple polymorphic relationship (is that possible?): class Part has_many :attachments, :as => :attachable end class Attachment belongs_to :attachable, :polymorphic => true end Calling Part.find(:first).attachments yields this SQL error: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql::Error: Unknown column

Hi all, I''m curious as to how you do functional testing on the controllers if, within the ApplicationController, I have a before_filter :authorize, :except => :login, where the private authorize method checks for session[:user]. I can''t do "post :login", because that method is in a different controller. I tried setting session[:user] directly in the setup
