Hi, I have a Rails 2 app and I wand to provide an API for 3rd party applications written on any language the customer uses. My thoughts are that the best way of providing it is by taking advantage of rails RESTfulness and let them perform CRUD actions on my data through it. But I don''t seem to find many information on how to achieve this. I first want to develop .NET clients (or web

I have a page that requires a lot of DB access to create a section of it, but that section does not change very often. I know how to cache the fragment in the view, but the db is still accessed in the controller. I watched the railscasts on fragment caching and he does it by moving the logic to the model. Is that the only way to do it? The part of the page that changes on every display is the

Hi folks, I am just getting into rails again after a multi-year stint of mod_perl jobs, which might grant me some newbie-indemnity for the time being - but I''ve found an issue I think warrants discussion. As discussed here - http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/RequestForgeryProtection/ClassMethods.html - the CSRF protection feature does not kick in for GET requests. This

Maybe I am grasping the full usage of this protect_from_forgery function, but it does not seem to work for me.

And yet, on successful sign in, I get an error: Render and/or redirect were called multiple times in this action.
