similar to: How to cache dynamic CSS (RCSS)?

There was some discussion on this list recently about doing .rcss templates in Rails using a custom template handler. I''ve come up with a very simple way to support rcss without a handler. Turns out all it takes is a route and an action that calls render(:file...). I put a full write-up on my blog earlier today:

Hi all, I''ve just been trying out the dirt-simple rcss scheme posted here: http://blog.hasmanythrough.com/articles/2006/03/23/dirt-simple-rcss-templates It looks like the content-type declaration on the line: render :file => file_name, :content_type => ''text/css'' isn''t getting honoured. I had to add a separate:

Hi all. I have the following scenario. http://myapp/site1 is using <%= stylesheet_link_tag ''myapp_standard'' %> to define the stylesheet for layout, I have myapp_standard.css in /public/stylesheets and it works fine. However, in the stylesheet I define a image to use for my site background. eg: html, body{ background-image: url(mysite_background.jpg); padding-top:

What suggestions do you guys have for using instance variables in CSS? I suppose I could just include a partial with style tags, but I''m looking for something a little more elegant. I found this: http://rcss.rubyforge.org/ Has anyone used it? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi List! Following http://rcss.rubyforge.org/files/README.html, I''m trying to get RCSS to work with Rails. The rcss command itself works fine, but when trying to access http://localhost:3000/rcss/test.css I always get "Unknown action - No action responded to test.css", which I don''t understand since the route and controller are in place. Anyway, hopefully this is

Hi All! My first contribution to Ruby/Rails community is ready. Here is short snippet from README as an overview: Rcss implements CSS-SSC (Server-side Constants) in Ruby. Main features: * Create rich CSS files using: - ERB templates - Server-side constants - Server-side classes (preliminary) * Simply add Rcss files to any Rails application * Process Rcss files off-line using command

Hello, I''m reading the builder project API (http://builder.rubyforge.org/), but I don''t find the answer to my question: Wich is the file name for CSS templates? (like RXML to XML). -- Daniel H

Hi I have a simple controller method like this: class StylesheetsController < ApplicationController layout nil session :off def gap site = Site.find_by_hostname(request.host) @colours = site.colours respond_to do |accepts| accepts.css { render :file => "#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/views/ stylesheets/gap.rcss" } end end end And I want to test that

Dears, My Ror setup works.. but I can''t guess why <%= stylesheet_link_tag ''style'' , :media=> ''screen''%> is rended as <link href="/stylesheets/style.css?1154009736" media="screen" rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css" /> What is that number.. any usage ?? Or I misconfigured something ? Thanks

The following was posted on my blog at http://blog.inquirylabs.com. A friend of mine recently expressed interest in this code snippet, so I thought I''d send it out to anyone else who''s interested. This module makes it a lot easier to ''require'' javascript and cascading stylesheet dependencies inside your views or controllers. By

Hi, I wanted to be able to use some Rails code inside CSS files, so I set up a controller (StylesController) to serve CSS files that reside inside the controller''s view folder when the browser requests /stylesheets/:action So in the controller I just define empty actions with the names I want my style sheets in (ie: def cooleffects end - that would respond to

Problem: The HREF generated by the stylesheet_link_tag is an absolute path. Details: The layout for my view has the following line <%= stylesheet_link_tag ''scaffold'' %> At runtime, this gets translated to <link href="/stylesheets/scaffold.css" ... /> This does not get resolved correctly. The problem is the leading slash. It should be <link

Hi, I''m developing an application that uses a layout called main on every page. Most of the individual pages are represented with a single partial template, but there are several pages that are composed of multiple partials. My main layout looks something like this: Code: <html> <head> <title><%= @title %></title> <%= stylesheet_link_tag

Hell all, I have a layout were I add my stylesheets and javascript in the following manner: <%= stylesheet_link_tag "/form" %> <%= stylesheet_link_tag "/text" %> <%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %> But what happens is that in the actual web page the source is the following: <link href="/form.css?1168168516" media="screen"

In my layout, I have something like (shortened for clarity): <html> <head> <%= stylesheet_link_tag "index", :media => "all" %> </head> <body> <div id="site-container"> ... <cut for space> <%= @content_for_layout %> ... <cut for space> </div> </body> A view action has another stylesheet defined

Hi all, I have recently configured rails to run under apache. I''ve tried adding a stylesheet using the stylesheet_link_tag function, however when I load the page I do not see the affects of the stylesheet. The URL to the stylesheet looks correct when viewing the page''s source. Has anyone else seen this problem? Thanks for your help, Chris -- Posted via

How can I include the contents of the file /public/stylesheets/print.css in an RHTML page for ActionMailer? Because there is no controller or session, none of the usual tricks work. Do you have to use basic file IO or there some convenience method I haven''t seen? Thanks Ashley -- "If you do it the stupid way, you will have to do it again" - Gregory Chudnovsky

When I use stylesheet_link_tag, the results come back with a timestamp ID, like this: <link href="/stylesheets/style.css?1154009736" media="screen" rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css" /> I don''t want the query string and ID on the end, but I can''t see how to disable this in the docs. How do I do this? thanks, jeff -- Posted via

Dear experts, I am in the process of switching servers for my application. Before the move everything was working properly. After the move <%= stylesheet_link_tag ''/stylesheets/styles.css'' %> generates <link href="//stylesheets/styles.css" media="screen" rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css" />
