similar to: Markaby syntax question

I''m playing around with Markaby and I decided to write a little blog app. I''m running into issues with forms however. If I use form_for the output of the form gets swallowed. For example: form_for :article, @article do |f| f.text_field :title f.check_box :published f.text_area :description f.text_field :pub_date f.text_area :content end gets rendered as an empty form

I can''t figure out why I am getting a failure. It renders out fine in the browser. <h1>New member</h1> <%= error_messages_for :member %> <% form_for(:member, :url => members_path) do |f| %> <fieldset> <legend>Member Info</legend> <p><label for="member[first_name]">First Name:</label> <%=

With the help of Tim Fletcher, I''m glad to present a new plugin for writing HTML templates in plain Ruby. You write .mab templates in app/views/ which contain Builder-like representations of HTML. As an illustration, here is the scaffold edit.rhtml remade as Markaby: h1 ''Editing product'' start_form_tag :action => ''update'', :id =>

In a form_for context, is there a way to access objects that are related to the primary object with a belongs_to? I think an example will serve best: class User < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :person attr_accessor :username end class Person < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :user attr_accessor :first_name end <% form_for :user do |form| %> <%= form.text_field

Hi all, I am starting a new rails app with the Markaby plugin (had some issues installing, but think its working). First, i created an index.mab file for a controller containing: h1 "First template" That rendered fine. Also, I do not have a "def index ..." in the controller. Then I created an app/layouts/application.mab file. It didn''t get picked up until after

I have a User model and an Address model. A user has_many addresses, and an address belongs_to a user. An address object for a user could be a billing, shipping or marketing address. The way I''m tracking this is via the user attributes: billing_adress_id, marketing_address_id and shipping_address_id in the user table, which holds the relevant address id. But in my form that allows a

Can someone explain the new Markaby syntax to me? I''m using Markaby as a Rails plugin, fetched from the trunk. I''m losing my instance variables somehow (@thing is always nil): class ThingsController < ApplicationController def index @thing = "Bacon of the chunky variety" end end # app/views/index.mab h1 { "You should see a thing here:" } p {

I''ve upgraded from Markaby 0.3 to 0.5 using gem install markaby. When I start my app and attempt to view my /articles/list.mab file, I get this error: Missing template .../app/views/articles/list.rhtml I checked the readme and the changlog on why''s site to see if there was any solutions mentioned, but didn''t find anything. Is there a special

Evaluating session variables inside a markaby paragraph tag always returns false. For example welcome.mab -- p "Good morning Mr. #{session[:user]}." -- displays: Good mornig Mr. How can I access session variables in maraby? -- Best Regards, -Larry "Work, work, work...there is no satisfactory alternative." --- E.Taft Benson -------------- next part

Ok, So I followed the directions.. I did a ''gem install markaby'' (which sounds like its enough to get me going for rails), but I wasn''t sure, so I tried to install the plugin as well. Plugin installation fails looking for a file: Script/plugin install http://code.whytheluckystiff.net/svn/markaby/trunk Outputs this error: + ./trunk/svnindex.xsl

Hi, being relativly new to RoR, I''m having a problem which I found described in this forum and somewhere else - but with no solution. I know, that it may be bad to mix table and form tags, but the first solution of an in place editing within a table looked nice: Version using form_for: <tr> <%form_for :time_record, :url => { :action => "add_time_record" } do

I''m trying to use a partial from within Markaby. I haven''t been able to figure out how to access a parameter passed into the partial. Here''s the code I''m using: h1 "Create a new note" if @note render :partial => ''form/errors'', :record => @note end ... (that snippet, as well as the partial is stolen shamelessly from Restolog

Hi .. I am new to Rails and it is not clear to me why I am getting the following error. Any help appreciated. -m. $cat app/views/admin/new.rhtml <% @page_title = "New member..." -%> <%= start_form_tag( :action => ''create'' ) %> <table> <tr> <td> First Name: </td> <td> <%= text_field(

I thought I had this fixed, but apparently not. It works okay from the console, but not from the view. I have the following: # partial schema create_table "users", :force => true do |t| t.string "login", :null => false t.string "first_name" t.string "last_name" t.string "email", :null => false

Hi everybody, I would like to use ruby2ruby in a caming project, but there seems to be an incompatibility with camping, ruby2ruby and markaby. Unfortunately I receive strange Markaby::InvalidXhtmlErrors. To demonstrate, that only combination of all three components causes the problem I added the following code. I relies on Markaby and ruby2ruby only and works fine (a.k.a. as expected).

how can i give name attributes for form_for(), so it will give an output like <form name="f">. it is because that i need to access the form name for javascript manipulation. as far as i know, name can only used in form_tag(), but i currently have more than 50 forms that built using form_for(). the structure is like this: <% form_for symbol, item, :url => { :action

I would like to use form_for in my project so that I can easily change the style of many forms at once. However, it seems to me like FormBuilders only support certain kinds of form elements(!). Surely there must be a way to add arbitrary labels/form elements to a form. Let''s say I had a form that looks like: ID: (plain-text label) Name: (text field) Birthdate: (date chooser) Picture:

Guys, We''re embarking on a new dev project, and I''m curious....why would one choose markaby over erb? I for one am no fan of the erb syntax, but aside from that it''s similar to other technologies I''ve used in the past: PHP, JSP, ASP, etc. Why would one choose markaby over erb? What are the benefits? What are the drawbacks? Is there anything remarkable

so i guess the parser changed or something.. -------------- next part -------------- Index: camping.rb =================================================================== --- camping.rb (revision 194) +++ camping.rb (working copy) @@ -7,7 +7,7 @@ c=self/c;c="//"+ at env.HTTP_HOST+c if c[/^\//];URI(c)end;def/p;p[/^\//]?@root+p : p end;def errors_for o;ul.errors{o.errors.each_full{|x|li
