I just want to confirm that it''s *not* possible to sort <tr>s in tables.... Jamie

Has anyone made, or does anyone know of, a nice calendar control based on prototype/scriptaculous out there yet? Thanks in advance!

I''m trying to call a click() event on an <a href> that has an Observable registered for it. Something like: <a href="#" id="toggle_1929">show</a> ... Event.observe("toggle_1929", ''click'', function(event){ Element.toggle ("group_1929"); return false; }); ... $("toggle_1929").click(); //this throws

How come in the latest version of script.aculo.us the dropOnEmpty feature turns off the hoverclass? I just updated my version because I was running into some weird display positioning issues (my app is a calendar with my draggable items being table elements) and now I have no feedback when I am hovering over a sortable. I can hack the dragdrop.js to make it work again, but is there any

Hi Community.... I''m new in this game, so this might be a easy question, but I have done my google, without result, so I will try this.... I''m learning ROR, and I''m using Patrick Lens ''Ruby on Rails'' book. (This is written for ror 1.x - and I''m using NetBeans 6.1 - ror 2.x - this might be the problem...) But... I have made this

Hi everyone, I have a dataset(named "Mydata") which includes 4 different variables named; s1,s2,s3,s4 .Each variable(symptom) has 14 patients. I need to use random sampling to make, 5 different samples from my data with 5 patients in each sample. i.e. using all 4 variables I need to make 5 different samples by changing patients(with 5 patients in each sample). X8 X9 X10 X102 X110

I''m a beginner. I''ve done the apple tutorial, Agile ROR (the depot app, I stopped after that, a little to advanced with no base knowledge of Ruby), Why''s guide and my copy of Chris Pine''s book today. After Pine, I''m going to buy either the Wrox book or Ruby for Rails book. I did a search and there''s not too much on the Wrox book (Holzner)

Hi, I''m building an application which is going to require quite fine grained access control. Deciding if a user is allowed to access an action will probably require checking quite number of different rules, so a simple role-based system won''t be flexible enough. The approach I think I will try first is, if it''s possible, to ignore permission issues inside the

I was reading this article a while back http://www.sitepoint.com/blogs/2008/06/06/did-rails-sink-twitter/ and it got me thinking. If I wanted to set up my app so that each user has his/her own table, how would I go about doing that? "create_table :users" just creates a table in the database for a list of all the users (which I guess I''d want in addition to their individual

What''s the easiest or best way to determine the screen size from within a controller or view in Rails? My "divs" look great at 1280x800, but not so hot on 800x600. I want to dynamically alter the layout based on the resolution. Any hints regarding screen size or alternate ways of handling this issue would be appreciated. Thanks! -------------- next part -------------- An

Hey all, When using the Ajax.autocompleter, how would I configure it so that the user is searching based on an entry''s name, but once they select an entry, I record the ID? I have the user entering a person''s name in a text box to make it easier to find contacts in a large database. I know that I can display content that doesn''t end up in the textbox by using

Hi, I am in a situation where I am going to have to rewrite a working Ruby on Rails application in CakePHP with PHP5. I have a whole bunch of specs written with rspec, and I was wondering if it would be possible to somehow use these specs to test the Models and Controllers that I am rewriting in CakePHP. I am going to be basically just exactly duplicating the Rails application, with identical

Hi, I recieve error "undefined method `stories_path'' for #<ActionView::Base:0x995b4ac>" when going to the view via site.com/stories/new The model is setup correctly, I can retrieve data from the db fine. I think it might be related to the helper but I have no idea where to start. It seems to think its failing on the first line of the view, i belive on the

Hi all. I''m a new convert (or at least I want to be a convert) to Rails. I''ve got the book, have read it, done bits and pieces of the demo, and tried to apply it to a rather complicated DB I''ve got here. I''ve got a ton of questions, and before I bore everyone here, is there a dedicated forum for Rails newbies to get help? Yak -- Posted via

Hello! I have 2 table: users and buddies User: id, name, ... Buddy: id, user_id, user_buddy_id, ... So if you have 2 users 1,jack and 2,fred and fred is a buddy of jack, there is a Buddy object: id=1, user_id=1, user_buddy_id=2 I can declare only one belongs_to in Buddy and one has_many in User. And there is conflict if I had the second one (the first one is discarded) class User has_many

Hi, I''m looking at developing a reasonably complex web application, where most of the complexity actually lays in the database and the queries I need run on it. Some "classes" or models need to consist of an assembly of several tables. It would be trivial enough for me to code these queries in SQL, but as far as I understand Rails is trying to hide the database as
