I am new to rails and have been scouring the web for the past two days trying to figure out 2 things. 1) I am currently using a form with 2 models. The first is person, the second is address. I attempted to duplicate the two models on one form as seen in Advanced Rails Recipes and Railscasts, and they work fine - except when there are validation issues on the address piece it just returns saying

hello.. i am currently trying to use :through to attach two of my models together using geokit. for some reason, i am running into a problem: ArgumentError: Unknown key(s): as i have two models, one that is geocoded, and one that belongs to that model. the models look like: ,----[ employer.rb ] | class Employer < ActiveRecord::Base | acts_as_mappable | before_validation_on_create

Newbie here :) So, a friend mentioned that geokit is the way to go if I want to make a simple location based app. I basically want to make a list of locations so the app should allow me to Create a location, give it a name and an address along with the geo location information associated with it. (Geokit will take care of this last thing right?) I tried looking for sample apps but had no

I converted the rails geokit plugin to a merb plugin today. Anyone interested in testing it out? It seems to be working great for me. If so, where should I put it? I don''t have a blog up or anything right now. Been meaning to do that, but haven''t had the time. -Dusty Doris

Hi all, I''m trying to use the excellent GeoKit plugin to geocode addresses entered by users. I use GeoKit to get latitude and longitude values, then plot these using Google Maps. The problem I have is that the maps produced tend to be slightly off where they should be. Nearby addresses seem to be grouped to one point, which suggests that the problem is in rounding the lat and lng values

Hello, My database structure consists of Store, Book, BookStore and Address as below. class Store < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :book_stores has_many :books, :through => :book_stores has_many :addresses acts_as_mappable :through => :addresses end class Address < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :store acts_as_mappable end class Book < ActiveRecord::Base has_many

I''m using Geokit gem to query mappable records within some distance to a mappable user. When geocoding an address such as "Madrid", lat&lng represent a point, in this case the center of the city. Suppose I have some records with location "Madrid", which are mapped with lat & lng to the center of the city. When querying for the closest record, the inaccuracy

I''m just curious about this, since my solution involved stubbing a call to GeoIp. Is there a good rule of thumb for when you make exceptions to the ''no stubbing'' philosophy of Cucumber?

Hi, I would like to know if there is a library that provides an API to support map scrolling, like the one available in google maps. This is, I would like to create a user interface where the user is able to see a small part of a large map. It can then move the view, thus observing another part of the map. Additionally, I would also like to provide a zoom mechanism. Thanks in advance. --
