contents of /lib automatically loaded?
I''ve written a simple replacement (not extension) of Ruby''s array class with some added functionality. I defined it in array.rb and put the file in rails_root/lib but when i fire up the console the class isn''t being loaded. How can I have my class automatically loaded and used instead of the built in Ruby class?

OT: finding a designer (bit of a rant)
I''ve written my app already. It outputs valid xhtml and I need a stylesheet to drop over the top. How hard is it for people to understand that? It''s a small project, they''d have to do the main design/layout, and then a little custom styling for some specific elements which don''t appear on every page. That''s the point of CSS right? write once, use

gettext and maintenance
hi all my app has two languages, I''m using gettext to manage them and so far so good. My question is about maintenance. If I fix a typo in a _() enclosed string, for example in an rhtml file, then the translated version of that string will no longer be valid will it? even if the translation itself had no errors. Is that the case and if so will i be forced to have the _() string

why I don''t like to use some 3rd party plugins
I''m not a professional developer in the sense that I''ve had any formal training or experience. I taught myself programming two years ago and have since moved to ruby and shortly after to rails - even now, i only develop as a hobby. This means that a lot of developer best practises are foreign or unknown to me, that''s why I love rails so much. You learn so much just

to ajax or not to ajax
before I started building my latest rails app, I made the decision to make good use of ajax. My reasonsing was that users would benefit from the quicker page updates - the application provides various different types of insurance quotes, and has several multi-page forms and reports that can be drilled down 5 or 6 levels deep in some cases - so it seemed like a good candidate for ajax Now

fixtures getting a little hard to manage
I have lots of tests which rely on fixtures being a particular state in order to pass. For example, one test checks that a User object can have no more than 3 associated ''Page'' objects at a time. That''s a simple example but I have more complicated tests too. The problem is I sometimes add a fixture without realising it''ll affect the tests and everything

How to get the current URL?
Hi, how can I get the current URL withing a controller? There seems to be no appropriate method in ActionController::Base. I''m creating a site, which requires a login for some pages. I''m using before_filter for authentication. My idea was to store the currect URL in a session before redirecting to the login page and then redirect to this URL after successful authenfication.

Purpose of ''yield'' in layout file in Flickr video?
During the excellent flickr video, the presenter adds the following to the applications layout file: <body> <%= yield %> </body> What is the purpose of the ''yield'' line? I would think there would be a content_for_layout tag there instead. Thanks, Don -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

comparing two databases with Active Record.
I have two databases in SQLite with the same schema. The other database was populated by an external customer and then returned. I want to use ActiveRecord to do the comparison. I am not sure of the best way to access the tables in each database with ActiveRecord models. I could change the connection dynamically whenever I want to switch between the databases, but this would seem to be clumsy

*dont* empty the database...?
I''d like to test against a very large dataset - is there anyway to prevent the data in the test database being destroyed on each test run? storing the dataset in fixtures causes the tests to take several minutes to complete, even using csv fixtures, and that''s just for one test case! I''d appreciate any suggestions on how to preserve the data in the test database
