I apologise for bad formatting. I don''t know how to make it nice in an email How do you nest image_url tags into link_to_remote tags. The following creates the error:wrong number of arguments (3 for 2) <%= link_to_remote(image_tag url_for_file_column(product, "image_url"), { "class" => "small_product",

I am using the very helpful file_column extension in my app. The uploading portion works great - no problems. Where I am having an issue is displaying the images in my view. My code looks like this: <% for @record in @main_box_releases -%> <%= image_tag(url_for_file_column("record", "record_cover")) %> <% end -% @record is an instance of a class called

Hi All, I am using the file_column plugin to upload images. The model that I am using is simply called images (id, name, caption - name being the "file" column) and it belongs_to a parent model called books which has_many images. I was able to figure out how to enter the images into the correct model when updating of form of the parent model (books). Now I need to figure out

is there a way to keep the file_column field in the form persistent across diffferent view templates ? In my controller (same controller for both views) i do @post = Post.new in the view i do form_step1.rhtml --------------------- <%= file_column_field "post", "image" %> <% if @post["image"] %> <%= image_tag url_for_file_column("post",

Hi, I correctly see: image_tag url_for_file_column("element", "picture_url", "medium") now I need to make it a link so I''ve used: <%= link_to(image_tag url_for_file_column("element", "picture_url", "medium"), {:controller => "products", :action => "sec_level", :level_id => @element.id}) unless

this seems so stupid, I keep thinking I''ve dealt with this before but I have this code <h1>Portraits</h1> <% if @image.portrait == 1 %> <%= image_tag(url_for_file_column ''image'', ''file'', ''thumb'') %> <% else %> <h1>Landscapes</h1> <%= image_tag(url_for_file_column

To make file_column work I have to copy my local variable back to an instance variables like this: <% for product in @products @product = product %> <div class="catalogentry"> <%= image_tag url_for_file_column(''product'', ''image_url'') %></p> This is needed because file_column specifically looks for the instance

Hi, Sebastian Kanthak of the file_column-Plugin wrote once: "is the photo object inside a local variable or an instance variable (e.g. photo or @photo)? url_for_file_column only works with instance variables, like all other active record form helpers. Could this be the problem?" So I''m using file_column in a partial, e.g. <%= render (:partial => "product",

Hi, url_for_file_column @variable, ''name'', takes an instance variable. My question is, what if I don''t want to have to retrieve the instance variable every single time but I have the image id, along with its name with me. Could I contruct that object in a view and pass it to url_for_file_column: <% @picture = Picture.new %> @picture.id = ...

I added this test towards the end of the included file_column_helper_test.rb that shipped with the file_column plugin: def test_url_for_file_column_different_root_path Entry.file_column :image, :root_path => File.join(RAILS_ROOT, "public/files") e = Entry.new(:image => upload(f("skanthak.png"))) assert_match %r{/public/files/entry/image},

Hey, I''ve gotten file_column to upload a file, drop it in the dynamic directory, but I can''t display the image, the directories repeat themselves: My model: class Person < ActiveRecord::Base file_column :image_url In my view: <%= image_tag url_for_file_column(''person'', ''image_url'') %> HTML generated is this: <img

I''m trying to have one image fade out and then another slidedown upon completion of the ajax call. I can''t get the timing correct. How do you do it? Here''s what I''m trying (this does not work) <%= link_to_remote(image_tag(url_for_file_column(product, "image_url"), :update => ''right_content'', :url => {

The docs in the SVN version of file_column state that url_for_file_column will return paths relative to the application root, and that if I pass it to image_tag, I''ll get an absolute URL. This doesn''t appear to be the case, at least with Rails 1.1. image_tag returns the same app-root-based path that it''s given. Doc bug? Rails change? file_column bug? Jay Levitt

Thanks szymek for putting me on track. What I did was re-intstall the file_column plug-in but I still got the same error so I added @recipe = recipe and then then error changed to something about nil.first. So I added a rescue "no image" to the end of my image_tag like so <%= image_tag url_for_file_column("recipe", "image") rescue "none" %> and

Hello, i hope somebody can help me: How can i get the path/url for a file stored with file_column within any contoller? Is it somehow possible to use the url_for_file_column method from the file_column_helper.rb ? Greetings and thanx for any advise, Marc -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Here''s what I''m trying to do. I have two divs, one holds about 20 small images of products and the other holds a single large image of one of the products. I''m trying to use the jazzy "new Effect." way of changing images but I can''t seem to get it too work. My script is replacing the image and then making the element disappear. What
