Guys, I understand the logic behind using image_tag in rhtml to maintain app portability, but how do you link to images in a stylesheet maintaining that same portability? Thanks for your help!

Gents, I''m using the acts_as_taggable rails plugin (not gem), and would like to add some additional methods to it. For example, the find_tagged_with methods essentially does a find tag in a list (effectively an OR), while I''d like to implement a find_tagged_with_all method that would implement an AND (so if I specified 4 tags, it would only return items that were

Guys, I have a relationship between model classes that I believe is best represented by inheritance, but the likelihood that things will change often is driving us to composition instead. So, I have a class called Autos, and subclasses called Suvs, Minis, Mids, Sports, for example. We have been requested to avoid the STI approach to this, because of fear of a quickly growing table with

Just curious...since Morfik is going after Google...do you think they''ll try to claim RJS violates their patent as well? I for one think such a claim would be ludicrous, but we all know patent lawsuits and rationale are polar opposites. B.A. -- B.A. Baracus: I thought you weren''t crazy no more?

Gents, My heads been out of the sql game for too long (or it''s simply too early). I''m trying to extend the acts_as_taggable plugin (note: not gem) so that you can specify a list of tags you''re interested in, and the plugin will return only those items that are tagged with *all* these tags. The plugin uses primarily two tables: tags, to keep all the various tag

Guys, I''m in the market for a reliable, trustworthy dedicated server solution. I''ve been running my own servers internally on a Speakeasy Static IP DSL connection, but recent problems with my local loop has caused me to reconsider this solution. completelydedicated.com offers a value Sempron for $59/monthly...a bit higher than I wish to go but I have no choice. Can

Guys, I''m frankly overwhelmed by the number of Rails authentication options(?) out there...from ActiveRBAC to acts_as_authenticated to LoginEngine and so on...so many options, yet on resource I''ve found really distinguishes between each. This is sad, as authentication and user management is really an area where some Rails simplicity pixie dust could be a real boon to

Hey, I''m trying to figure out what the most elegant way to do this - I''ve only got a small amount of different subdomains corresponding to categories - and I''ve been using fragment caching. In particular, I was wondering what the best way to call these actions is - I''m thinking redirect and render_component aren''t really very nice

Is there any particular distro that seems to be most used among RoR developers on Linux? Any that might provide better support somehow for development of RoR apps? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Gents, We''re hard at work on a new Rails app. We''re a small group of developers...not a web designer in the bunch. We know CSS enough to be dangerous, but we shy away from the "softer" skills (all the while envious of those with that capability). We intend to grow our application in terms of functionality, but I need to make sure we keep an eye towards

I was wondering if rails had any means of restricting access to an action in a controller (like they can''t type in url.com/cont/action, that would throw an error). The thing is I would like to be able to access this method/action through a call to render_component, so therefore, I don''t think private methods will work. So basically I am looking for something that cannot be

I''m calling render_component in a helper. render_component :controller => target_controller, :action => "show", :id => target_id This works fine, except that passing the id in :params didn''t work and I had to pass in an explicit :id parameter to get the target controller to override the id - is that documented anywhere? That''s not my question. My

Hi all, Any help is appreciated. I used the ajax scaffold generator to make 3 scaffoldings. Then I put them together as components in a combined layout and created a master controller, which happens to be named "dataentry''. That works fine. Within each of the components, I was able to set up links that paginate and update the div (for the component) with correctly paginated

Using Rails 1.1.2 and ruby 1.8.4 I''m having a weird issue with the flash when using render_component for an action inside different controller than the one from which you render. I''m passing an object via flash across a couple of actions (new and create) behind the scenes using flash.keep(:object). It works fine if the component I''m rendering is in the same

Hey guys, This is the final list of the new maintainers of each plugin. We need two more things to do: First please the owners of the repos add the rest of the maintainers. Second I will add a note on each rails/plugin mentioning this repos updates. So from now on, if someone else is interested in helping/contributing please send a message to the appropriate repo owner. verification
