similar to: ActiveScaffold :form_ui select

I am running on Rails 2.2.2 on Solaris (and also on my mac) against mysql. For some reason, when I use a select in the partial, the database does not get updated with the changed value. I am using checkbox for other fields which works perfectly. I can provide more information if needed, but I would like the field to work as a dropdown instead of a text field. My Model:

Hi First off, I''m using Ruby 1.9.1p378 and Rails 2.3.8. I was creating a minimal application to test handling of Norwegian special characters when I bumped into this strange problem... I have a simple Car model with fields maker:string and model:string. For the controller I planned to just have an index action do all the work: class CarsController < ApplicationController def index

All, I hear tell that neither Streamlined nor ActiveScaffold support the use of has_many :through relationships in the sense that HM:T relationships will effectively be read-only in those frameworks. Does anyone know why this is? I assume that it has something to do with the way that the relationships are introspected on? Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi there, when I create active scaffolding in a many to many relationship, I would like that my create/delete actions in the nested scaffold would actually erase one relationship between the two tables or create a new link between the two tables, and not delete the record itself in one table or create a new record of one of the two tables involved. Is this possible with Active Scaffold? Thank

Hi there. I need to get a specific field from a activescaffold object. The specific field must be editable, and must de available to be set to a new value, thus the object.send(:field) will not work, since it only gets the value, but does not enable reasigning a new value to the field. Is theer a way to do this? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have an events listing site that includes the models Event and DateAndTime, so an event that happens more than once (like a high school play) can have more than one date_and_time. The Event model has_many date_and_times, and the DateAndTime model belongs_to event. The Event model validates_presence_of two submission form variables, the_date and the_time, and those variable values then get used

Hi all, I''m running Rails on top of a Mongrel cluster. I have several model classes that are going to have so many records it is not feasible to keep them all in the same table.
