similar to: Writing Specifications for Custom Form Builders (and Helpers)

I am trying to write some simple code post a form, update the database and do some validation. I have 2 problems: 1) The validation fails but I can''t get hold of the error message 2) I can''t get the form to redisplay the previously entered data for the user to correct. I have 2 controllers: user and holiday. A user can request a new holiday by filling in a form. I have a

Hi, I am new to rails and I have setup Typo on my site. One little thing bugs me, the login page doesn''t give focus to the "user_login" field. I was wondering what do I need to do to make rails help with this? I have seen some simple inline javascript to set the focus, sort of like: document.<form_name>.user_login.focus() However the rails view doesn''t

Hi, I want to extend formbuilder to make it output a lable (I know about labeled_form_helper made by technoweenie), my own formating, and a couple of extra tags inside the form attribute. I was easily able to extend form_remote_to. But when I continue to adjust the way elements are handled I don''t know how to continue. I can''t find the method text_field thats should is

Hello all, In yet another attempt to learn Ruby on Rails and Rspec I have started writing a simple life streaming app with will aggregate feeds from several places and save them in a database for later use. An internet search eventually led me to the following method for looping through the feeds in the database, getting the contents of the URL and then passing this into another model to prepare

Hi. How to use session in ruby on rails ? I try to make it work for hours, but it still doesn''t work... In my controller I have this: def identification @current_user = User.new(params[:user]) ok = false redir = ''login_failed'' @remote_user = User.find(:all) @remote_user.each do |r_user| if (r_user.login == @current_user.login and

I don''t have a blog, but wanted to share this little bit of code with other semi-beginners like myself who are still learning to take advantage of rails features. Selecting an attribute with a boolean switch is a common pattern in forms. You can do it with a check box, but radio buttons are more expressive in some situations and better convey to the user that they are making a mandatory

I have a page, which renders a partial that contains a ''State'' drop down list. Upon change, it re-renders the ''City'' drop down, re- populating it based on selected state_id: Page: /customer/new.rhtml <% form_for :customer, :url => customers_path do |f| %> State: <%= f.collection_select :state_id, State.find(:all), ''id'',

Is it possible to pass this FormBuilder object to a controller and then back to a partial? I have a form rendering a partial that i would like to update with a call to my controller based on user selectable parameters, but when the AJAX comes back, i get this error message because i cannot pass a form builder object between the controller and the view: "undefined method

In the API docs I found this: "You can also build forms using a customized FormBuilder class. Subclass FormBuilder and override or define some more helpers, then use your custom builder " I couldn''t find any further documentation on this. Where can I read more about this formbuilder class? For starters, where would I define a subclass of this class? TIA, Jeroen --

Ok I stole some script and I need some help on fixing it on one thing: Reloading on post. here''s the script: <div id="panel"> <form action="/loging_in/login" class="header-panel" href="/loging_in/login" id="login-panel" method="post" onsubmit="new Ajax.Request(''/loging_in/login'',

I would like to use form_for in my project so that I can easily change the style of many forms at once. However, it seems to me like FormBuilders only support certain kinds of form elements(!). Surely there must be a way to add arbitrary labels/form elements to a form. Let''s say I had a form that looks like: ID: (plain-text label) Name: (text field) Birthdate: (date chooser) Picture:

Im trying to identify how ssh 4.5 interacts with the audit subsystem within AIX 5.3. i get an event when a user logs in, but not when they exit via ssh. i can get it to work with telnet, however. It would seem to me that if an event is captured from the login, that the same would be true for the logout. I've opened a PMR w/IBM, but not getting very much help. below is an example of my

Hello all, There seems to be a bug in internet explorer 5 where a redirect causes the session to be lost. A controller says.... def login case @request.method when :post if @session[:user] = User.authenticate(@params [:user_login], @params[:user_password]) return redirect_to(:action=>''send_confirmation'') unless

Hi, i have some issues with the default rails error wrapping. It wraps errors in a div with class ''fieldsWithError'', which is not good practice in my eyes. Adding a class ''error'' to the field would be much nicer. My solution to the problem: build your own FormBuilder. Funny enough, i found no (nice) possibility to switch error wrapping off while using the

I am writing a hp ilo module to automatically assign a static ip that is derived from the IP of the system which is fed in via facter. I basically just need to change the network the ilo is connected to. The ruby code works great inside the irb console. However, puppet doesn''t seem to be able to use the variable I have derived from the ipaddress. This is my first template so I am not

Hi all, In the application i develop, a sophisticated login system is required. Being a newbie in Ruby, i''m not comfortable with the select tag in the form tag. My requirement: 2 tables - User(LoginName, Password, RoleId...) and Role(RoleId, RoleName...) View - RoleNames to be loaded in the drop down box and On submit, RoleId to be passed to controller for authentication. My Code

Hi, I am using Matt McCray''s theme generator. http://rubyforge.org/projects/theme-generator/ Everything works fine, but rendering an action in a controller using the AppMailer raises this: undefined method `current_theme'' for #<AppMailer:0x39df950> Is there someone who could help me ?

I''ve got two servers, both with Rails 1.1.6 on them. I''m trying to remove some of the newly-deprecated stuff in my app, and I''ve run into a problem.

Hello, I''m writting some helper methods to write forms, so I have this working code: class TableFormBuilder < ActionView::Helpers::FormBuilder ["file_field", "password_field", "text_field"].each do |name| define_method(name) do |label, *args| @template.content_tag(:tr, @template.content_tag(:td, @template.content_tag(:label,
