I have two before_filters for a few of my controllers. They are running my own methods authorize and admin_authorize. authorize is called on just about every action to make sure that a user is logged in. admin_authorize is called on about 80% of the actions and is used to make sure that a user is an administrator.

This issue has been discussed before (http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/ 125392) and after spending a while debugging through this, I still don''t have a solution. Lets try again? I have two controllers, SomeController and Admin::SomeController. When SomeController is loaded first (which happens under spork, found out by editing ActiveSupport::AbstractController) I get warning: toplevel

What would be the best way to create a form select dropdown box and upon "submit" have it directly go to a controller method view? I have something that somewhat works, but I think there is probably a much easier way to do it.

This is of course disallowed, which I discovered only after nearly completing my spanking new ajaxified UI. What is the motivation behind this, and what is the best workaround?

But then the
