Hi all, I''ve just been trying out the dirt-simple rcss scheme posted here: http://blog.hasmanythrough.com/articles/2006/03/23/dirt-simple-rcss-templates It looks like the content-type declaration on the line: render :file => file_name, :content_type => ''text/css'' isn''t getting honoured. I had to add a separate:

There was some discussion on this list recently about doing .rcss templates in Rails using a custom template handler. I''ve come up with a very simple way to support rcss without a handler. Turns out all it takes is a route and an action that calls render(:file...). I put a full write-up on my blog earlier today:

Hello, I''m reading the builder project API (http://builder.rubyforge.org/), but I don''t find the answer to my question: Wich is the file name for CSS templates? (like RXML to XML). -- Daniel H

Hi List! Following http://rcss.rubyforge.org/files/README.html, I''m trying to get RCSS to work with Rails. The rcss command itself works fine, but when trying to access http://localhost:3000/rcss/test.css I always get "Unknown action - No action responded to test.css", which I don''t understand since the route and controller are in place. Anyway, hopefully this is

Not terribly exciting, but I was happy to think of it. I needed a div with a fixed height that could vary depending on page content. So I did this: <div class="listcntnr" style="height: <%= @users.size / 2 * 125%>px"> Whee! --Al Evans -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I''m using this tutorial: http://blog.hasmanythrough.com/2006/3/23/dirt-simple-rcss-templates to make dynamic CSS files. However I can''t figure out how expire cached CSS files. Here''s my code: http://pastie.caboo.se/181021. Most of it is copied from the tutorial. Files are cached properly - i.e. <%= stylesheet_link_tag "main" %> generates

Hi, does anybody have any pointers on where to look to learn how to write custom dynamic templates? Agile is a little sparse on this (but otherwise superb)! Thanx -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all. I have the following scenario. http://myapp/site1 is using <%= stylesheet_link_tag ''myapp_standard'' %> to define the stylesheet for layout, I have myapp_standard.css in /public/stylesheets and it works fine. However, in the stylesheet I define a image to use for my site background. eg: html, body{ background-image: url(mysite_background.jpg); padding-top:

Hi All! My first contribution to Ruby/Rails community is ready. Here is short snippet from README as an overview: Rcss implements CSS-SSC (Server-side Constants) in Ruby. Main features: * Create rich CSS files using: - ERB templates - Server-side constants - Server-side classes (preliminary) * Simply add Rcss files to any Rails application * Process Rcss files off-line using command

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!

Hi, I wanted to be able to use some Rails code inside CSS files, so I set up a controller (StylesController) to serve CSS files that reside inside the controller''s view folder when the browser requests /stylesheets/:action So in the controller I just define empty actions with the names I want my style sheets in (ie: def cooleffects end - that would respond to

Hello, I have the usual Categories and Products table scenario, mediated by a Categories_Products join table. When I create a new Product and into a given Category, I notice that my join table is not being populated. Shouldn''t the join Categories_Products table be populated?

Hi, Four tables: users, user_counties, uk_counties and us_counties. Each user has many counties, and each county has many users, so I decided to make user_counties a polymorph, so it can have counties from different countries (each country requires a completely different set of tables with a completely different set of properties, that''s why there''s one table for uk_counties and

I just took my HABTM and turned it into a :through since my join table has another "non-joiny" attribute. I went from this: has_many_and_belongs_to :jobs, :join_table => ''tablename'', :foreign_key => ''x'', :association_foreign_key => ''y'' to this: has_many :jobs, :through =>

Hi there I need to store additional attributes on join table. Searching the Wiki [1] revealed two possible methods: 1) push_with_attributes, as described by Justin Palmer [2]. Unfortunately, "this method is now deprecated" [3]. Even if it wasn''t, there seem to be inherent problems with that approach, for example with updating those additional attributes, though Joshua Muheim
