Now I need to allow the user to upload the same XML file they created earlier and put it back

Hi One of our customers has a Filemaker database which needs to be accessed for some data. Using the Web Companion, I can query the database for an XML version of the data. I need to be able to push this data into an array of hashes, so I can access it in a more convenient way.

Hello railers, I''ve always been annoyed by the fact that ERB doesn''t respect XML specs. As I mostly write XHTML, I''m trying to write a renderer using only valid XML files.

Was trying to understand more about the internals of wxruby-swig, where does the big chunk of XML comes from? I saw something similiar in Python, is that massaged out of there? The codes produced by extractxml.rb and wxclasses-2.4.2.xml is quite different from the original header files. Just for example the WxDialog class. OnXXX are non-virtual in WxWidgets, but virtual in wxruby-swig

Hi, a Javascript in one of my Rails templates needs to load a static XML file. I tried several places to put the actual XML file, and I also tried to make the file a rails template (tried both .rhtml and .rxml) and access it via a controller action. None of these ways worked. Does the lighttpd server know how to serve XML files, or do I need to configure it first? Or, is there a good workaround?
