similar to: My id's are all float?

I''m using a legacy table, where the unique id is not ''id'' I have a Model class like the following: class Article < ActiveRecord::Base set_primary_key "ARTICLE_ID" end however, using a link_to like the following (modified scaffolding), the link has no id value: <% for article in @articles %> <tr> <% for column in

I have two tables, applicants, and skills where each applicant "has_many" skills, and each skill "belongs_to" an applicant. When I have a reference to an applicant and a (skill) id for one of their skills, I thought to update their skills by using @applicant.skills.find(id_of_skill).description = ''new description'' # even adding

I am working with a legacy oracle database. The primary key is not defined as an integer but as a number. This results in a url with an id as a number, such as 1234.0 instead of 1234.

Thanks, first, to everyone who''s asked and answered questions on this list, and to the creators of RSpec - it is all very helpful.

Agile book lacks some basic information, perhaps I need to learn ruby as I am lacking information - some basic things - especially debugging.

Hi, I have some problems with an application where I''m using custom accessors to do currency conversions. In my model, I have a price attribute in the database that stores the value in cents, to avoid future problems with float arithmetic and round. But at the views, I would like to show the price in euros, with decimal for the cents. So I defined a new attribute called price_in_euros,

Hello- I would like to know what the suggested practice is for having multiple submit buttons on a relatively complicated input page. Let''s use the example of a Contact. There is lots of info there, including name, address, phone number. There is also a list of "contact associations" which can be modified on the same page. Ideally, the user could have one
