Hi , It comes to me that helper has some weaknesses: 1) It is hard to test . No easy way to write test code for it. (or Just i didn''t know?) 2) Not easy to reuse it on other controller/view/model. it looks like to that putting the helper code into a model (a fully helper model , or a mixed model) is good practice. However i agree that some html intensive

I have a controller test here: http://gist.github.com/275616, which works fine when account is an independent model, however I want: an account to be a property of user, ( and created and associated when a user is) when the user goes to /account/edit it should on edit the account of the logged in user - I can make rails do this, but I''m utterly baffled how I should alter this test to

Hi, Another noob here I am afraid! I have a questuin about the current_user method that comes with AAA. I have AAA set up and working fine and if i put <%= self.current_user.login %> into a view it shows the login name as expected on the page. What I cant work out is how to record this into the database when the user completes a form. My app so far only has two models.

Right now in my view, I have a whole HUGE clump of <% if current_user %> and then <% if current_admin %> and then <% if current_teacher %> and then all that other stuff in my view. I have a ginourmous chunk of if and else statements in my views... is there a way to make it prettier? The if and else''s almost all have the same functions, expect for some minor changes.

Newb here. I have a form and a value that is being displayed ... and I have no idea where the value came from. I have done a <%= debugger; '''' %> in the form and, indeed, the debugger stops at the statement. I have tried to trace through the code to see where the value came from ... and I gave up. So ... what in Rails initializes the fields of a form? -- Posted via

Quick question about userstamping records in a similar way to timestamping. There is an example of how this might work at: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/Howto+Add+created_by+and+updated_by/versions/7 This seems to work fine on my development system. However, I am not sure how the User.current_user method, which is required, can guarantee to return the correct user since this is a
