Hi guys, a few weeks ago I set up my first rails plugin: acts_as_wizard This plugin will let you build wizards on top of existing controllers, giving you the ability to chain pages and actions to provide wizard-like behavior through web pages. I bet there are better ways to achieve this goal than ones I discovered... What I''m kindly asking is someone who wants to give me suggestions or

Hey there, I got a new workstation going on here an Intel iMac, and I''ve compiled and installed everything with intel binaries. Everything works fine, I even got that cool clever lighttpd script running (http://www.bigbold.com/snippets/posts/show/303). But the one thing that doesn''t work is breakpoints and the breakpointer script. When I run script/breakpointer, I get the

I feel I am very close to understanding how layouts are used in Rails: Q1. I know one can specify a "default" layout for all methods in a controller by specifying layout ''my-default-layout'' How can this be overridden for individual methods so when those methods are called/executed, the overridden layout will be used. Is this possible? Q2. With no

Went back and forth a bit trying to find out the easiest way to do this. Found a plugin but it didn''t seem very stable/well written. This is what I have going right now: - if @content_for_recipe_editor_tabs = yield :recipe_editor_tabs - else = tabbed_navigator(RecipesController.send "edit_tabs") If any templates/sub-templates/partials used in this render have

I don''t understand why my program does not get the file that I try to upload. It returns the following error when I try to upload a small file: NoMethodError in LogfileController#create You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! The error occured while evaluating nil.original_filename #{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models/logfile.rb:9:in `file=''

I used RJS extensively in my last web app with no problem. I''m just beginning a new one and having a very odd problem. The called method, get_names, retrieves some values from the database, then ends: render :layout => false the get_names.rjs file is rendered into Javascript, but then is just dumped as Javascript (text) into the browser: e.g: try {

Hi all, Forgive me if this has been asked before, but is there a reason mongrel_rails cluster::restart stops all ports and then restarts them again? Wouldn''t it be better to restart each port one-by-one in series so that upstream proxy servers can fail over while the restart is occurring, or am I missing something? Thanks, eden

I''m trying to figure out how to determine the width and height of images that are uploaded through my app. Either from the posted data or the file I save to disk. I''ve been searching around for info but no luck; I''m completely at a loss. Any suggestions or pointers would be great. Project background: The site is an artists portfolio site. The images are thumbnails

I''ve got a fairly basic problem here that I''m hoping there is an easy solution for. I have a chunk of html code that I want to truncate to a given length... say 20 characters or so. If I use the ''truncate'' helper function I end up with unbalanced tags. For example. <a href=www.someplace.com>A really long string of words</a> becomes <a

Any plans for using Atom with rails. I saw the "Typo" project is using MoveableType, Blogger, ... but not Atom. It seems Atom is not part of ActionWebService. Has anyone done any work with Atom and Rails ? Thanks for your answers, Gaspard

Hi everyone, I''m at the end of my rope on this. I can''t get pagination to work with anything but a standard find on a model. If I try to do a search and customize the pagination, I get lots of different variations. My thought was to have the list action do what it does, but to pass it a list of search conditions from the search action. So, if search determines that we need

I''m doing a registration form. I saw many registrations forms which asks you for a country and it lists all the countries of the world, and when you select a country the form is actualized with all the states or provinces, and when you select a state/province then the form is actualized with all the cities. I''m looking to do something like that, is there a free service or pay

I''ve been searching for a way to implement a search feature across articles posted in a table. All the google results I get refer to "live" search and I''m not interested an automcomplete function, but because of the prevalence of tutorials on the subject, I can''t seem to find what I want. I have implemented a search in PHP before where I had MySQL perform an

In some cases this creates really wide tables which require horizontal scrolling. Is there a parameter I can use with scaffolding or a hack to get the header cells along the left side of the table instead? I''m
