Hi, A store front a customer wants to GET /product/5/show. But for the application this is really GET /cart_item/new/5 or even better /cart_item/new?cart_item[product_id]=5 When the customer clicks add_to_cart they POST /product/5/show so that the url doesn''t confuse the user when any validation errors occur. But for the applicaiton this should be POST

Is it possible to have more than one kind of view for a specific action, for example an .rhtml and a .rjs file to handle the view for the same action? I suspect not, but this makes me wonder if there a way to call the .rjs file from within the .rhtml so the statements within it get executed? Thanks, Andy

In the "Agile Web Development with Rails" book it runs through making an example application, a shopping cart. In one of the views files, there is one line of code I dont understand (below), I dont know what the "h" is for, also I took the h out, and it did not affect the application (as far as i could see). <%= h(product.title) %> Can anyone shed some light on this

I have just spotted quite a serious problem with my rails app. My app uses the session to store information. Most people who use the app may have more than one instance of it open in their browser (multiple tabs). The session stores which country the user has selected. On each browser tab the user may select a different country. You can add items to a country. There are problems with

Is there a built-in way to determine if a model object has just been created (ie. this object was the one that was originally persisted)? I can''t see it anywhere in the AR code, but thought I''d check. I want something like: p = Person.create p.original_instance? # true Is this built-in or should I just patch AR? -Jonathan.

Hi all, i would like to add the .html extension by default to all my resources. What is the best way to do that? The reason for this is that i need to download the generated sites via wget and i need the .html extension for the downloaded files. Also it would be nice if the link_to would automatically generate the links with .html... Thanks, Gerold

hi all, I want to move some routing tasks out of the router and into the controller. The goal is to make Merb feel less like mod_rewrite and give the user more control at the controller. The new Router is simple: it takes the path_info (not the whole request) then outputs a controller class and some parameters from the path matching. The rest of the routing would be done at the controller level.

I have tried to put a flash movie inside of my RoR page and it shows up with nothing on IEPC. It does very well on every other type of browser but does not work with IEPC. I made a folder - "flash" in my public directory and have had the one instance of it point there. Thus my flash directory is www.rails-app.com/flash/flash.swf Is there anything that anyone knows to help out?

I''m trying to use the ordinalize() method to ordinalize a day. Here''s how far I''ve gotten: @reportday = Time.now.at_beginning_of_week.strftime("%d").to_i @ordinalized_reportday = "#{@reportday}".ordinalize I was thinking it wasn''t working because the date is being returned as a string, however I added the .to_i and still it returns an

Hi there, I''ve tried to add a m:n mapping table using the migration mechanism. ruby script\generate migration add_categories_notes_mapping and filled the migration file with: class AddNotesCategoriesMapping < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :categories_notes do |t| t.column :category_id, :integer, :null=>false t.column :note_id, :integer,

Hi, We are thinking about choosing Rails as our weapon of choice for our next project, which is basically a text editor on steroids, whith some functionality that need an Internet connection. In the first step we are going to develop it as a plain web app (AJAX-ified, yay!), however, in the next step we would like to port some of the functionality (such as the editor) to a desktop app (which can

Hi, The default way we handle an array of checkboxes is like this: <% items.each do |item| %> <%= check_box_tag ''item[]'', "#{item.id}" %> <% end -%> this returns an array item[] that holds the ids of all the items. Now the real issue: 1. The above loop will same ids to ''n'' items 2. All ids will be ''item[]''

Hello, I have the following: image_tag(''show.png'', :alt => ''show article'', :title => ''show article'', :border => 0) Is it possible that I don´t need to have "=> ''show article''" twice in this row? e.g. something similar to this pseudo code: (:alt, :title) => ''show article''.

Hello, I want to a select tag, where you can choose a number between 1 and 100. My inital code is based on the examples from Agile Web Development with Rails, and looks like this: view: <%= options = [["Select number of lines", ""]] + RfqLines::LINE_QTY select("rfq_line", "line_qty", options) %> model: LINE_QTY = select_fill def

Hey there all, Is there some way to tell rails or sql server to ignore the time in a datetime field when doing a comparison? For example, if I do something like select * from users where registration_date = ?, @date where @date might equal some user input like ''03/14/2006'' The result is nothing returned, because in my tables the datetime field looks like this: 3/14/2006

I''m using the date_select and datetime_select helpers in my view, and they return Date classes from the params hash. But how do I work with Date classes, they don''t print human readable dates or times, Time classes work well I can use strftime("%H:%M") to print to the screen. Is it possible to convert a Date to a Time, Ive been tinkering in irb but have got

Hi everyone, A couple of weeks ago I noticed a bug with :dependent => :nullify on a has_many or has_one. When you delete the parent, the children''s foreign keys are nullified, as expected. But when you do parent.child.delete or parent.children.clear, ActiveRecord actually deletes the child records, rather than just nullifying them. In my eyes, if you''ve set
