In Depot, the demo application in the the Agile book, actions that modify the model such as add_to_cart redirect to another action that has a clear view role, like index, or show_cart, instead of generating the view themselves. This uses an HTTP redirect that goes to the client and returns. Is this an idiomatic way to design the flow in Rails? -- fxn

I have a bunch of queries to compute some counters, like find_by_sql(<<-SQL SELECT p.*, c.nfavourites FROM people p, ( SELECT fp.person_id, COUNT(fp.user_id) as nfavourites FROM favourite_people fp, users u WHERE fp.user_id = u.id AND u.cluster = ''#{in_cluster_of_user.cluster}'' GROUP BY fp.person_id ) as c WHERE

I have a new @offer that needs to generate a document if saved. But that''s all or nothing: transaction do @offer.save! generate_document end # handle exceptions if needed If save! fails everything is fine, but if generate_document raises an exception @offer is left as a model with timestamps, id, which is not a new_record? anymore (though the database was

I copied an exact copy of "http://demo.script.aculo.us/ajax/autocompleter" to my harddisc inclusive all .js and .css. Then I changed "new Ajax.Autocompleter(''contact_name'', ''contact_name_auto_complete'', ''/ajax/auto_complete_for_contact_name'', {})" to "new Ajax.Autocompleter(''contact_name'',

Having problems with the autocomplete on my linux box and firefox. When I use form tags it breaks, without form tags everything works fine. Exact copy of the example provided, but I added form tags.. The initial search and select works but then the box sort of "locks up" and I can''t change it at all, If I do try to type something nothing changes but a second later the whole

I left ":memory:" in database.yml for testing and the most simple tests in the Agile book do not work (see trace below for test_truth). Since that''s what comes with the distributed database.yml I suppose it''s me doing something wrong. Did someone get SQLite ":memory:" working? How does it grab the schema? -- fxn % rake test_units (in

Any ideas how I can submit say, a person ID instead of the person''s name on an autocompleter input field? Surely this is a common need. Thanks! Daniel

When I upgraded to 1.0, I broke autocomplete on a field. I''ve done everything that I can think of to fix the problem, but nothing has worked. I''m able to recreate a simple autocomplete from examples on the various tutorials, but my original code just will not work. <input id="incident_first_party_name" name="incident[first_party_name]"

when the user click on "Search" I would like it to point to http://curentpage/?filter=searchtext (the filtering code is already written) it would look like this: <%= start_form_tag(url_for_options = {<something>}) %> <%=text_field (<my_filter>) %> <%= submit_tag(value = "Search")%> any idea how to do this? thanx in advance

I''m using the auto_complete plugin, and it works great, my problem is i need to pass multiple parameters to the controller other that what is typed in the text field. <%= text_field_with_auto_complete :search, :contains, :size => 15, :frequency => 0.1, :skip_style => true -%> This is what i have as of now, but i also need to pass ":language => @default"

I''m using the acts_as_taggable gem (who''s site has gone AWOL apparently) and I''m wanting to make it autocomplete.

So after successfully getting the test SQLite db to run from memory, I tried running some tests but found that somewhere in the schema translation from Postgres (my devel database) and SQLite Rails fails to properly set the ''id'' column, which breaks all kinds of things. Take as an example my ''users'' table. In Postgres the schema is (generated with pgAdmin III):

Hi all, I''m looking for some insight on why my text_field_with_auto_complete might not work in Internet Explorer. I''m using it in a fairly simple way, without much customization. I''ve broken it down and made a test page at http://realty.colemanation.org/houses/test which shows the behavior I''m having problems with. For me on Windows XP this page works

Hi, I am using the autocomplete for text field with ''Scriptaculous'' and it works perfectly fine in "new" action. All the examples I see are only for the "new" action. But doesn''t default to the selected value/text in "edit/show" action? Is this possible or should I write custom code for "edit/show" action? Thanks, Hari --

I have an model Order and a model Customer. Each customer has_many Orders. Each Order belongs_to a Customer. If I create an order but don''t specify a Customer (for whatever reason, maybe it''s unknown at the time).. I obviously can''t access @order.customer.name because I''ll get a nil error... So what''s the right way to handle that? If the Customer is

Hi, I''m using scriptaculous to provide an auto complete textbox - and it works perfectly - but I was wondering if there was anyway to let users navigate the choices using the keyboard i.e the curor keys as opposed to having to use the mouse?
