I''m using scriptaculous'' SlideUp and SlideDown effects to animate a menu. Specifically, I SlideUp, make some CSS changes, and SlideDown. All works well, except that for a split second in between, the element''s display becomes ''none'' and the other menu item jump into the space. I haven''t been able to find any way to force an element to retain

All, I have a small Intranet app I''m trying to get ready for remote access. (I only have 15 or so users for now and I don''t plan to be adding very many more.). I have installed the login engine and it seems to be working as advertized. (Great job!) For my needs I don''t want random people to be able to register and get access to my app, but I will need to register

I''ve finally gotten lighttpd working for my production instance (SUSE 10.0 with SSL). (Had to install the fcgi dev toolkit, the SUSE 10 ruby-fcgi rpm, and the fcgi gem. I''m not positive all 3 were required, but that is what I did.) Now the devel instance of my app is broken. I''m not sure how to fix it. Previously I was using WEBrick for both devel and production.

I''ve just install Eclipse with RadRails for the first time. I''m trying to follow the very simple DemoAppPart1 at http://wiki.awebfactory.com.ar/awebfactory/published/DemoAppPart1 When I click on the DepotServer and try to start it WEBbrick is not starting. I can cd to the base directory and run script/server and it works. Any idea what I''m doing wrong? Thanks Greg

I''m really lost on this issue. Do I need to reinstall rails / gems? The rest of my rails setup seems to be working. I just can''t run dispatch.fcgi. (Details in original message below). I have no idea how to troubleshoot this. I''m not even positive it is supposed to be runnable from the command line. I found a troubleshooting guide that implied it was supposed to

I have a small intranet app with only 20 or so users. I''m currently using lighttpd w/ssl for production and mongrel for dev. I don''t think Mongrel supports ssl, but what is the easiest front-end to put in front of it? Pound? Thanks Greg -- Greg Freemyer The Norcross Group Forensics for the 21st Century

All, My initial list is rather busy. I would like to shorten the created_on and updated_on fields to just display the date, not the time. Best wold be a simple 12/28/05 type of presentation. I''ve found the format helpers in rdoc. (ie. distance_of_time_in_words_to_now ), but none seem to be what I''m looking for. How do I control the date format of a timestamp field? Thanks

All, I know there are 3 or 4 search plugins out there. I''m trying to find one that will allow me to search associated fields. My database content is pretty small, so efficiently is not so critical. On the other hand I have ton of :belongs_to type fields, so I need something that works well with the Rails models. Any recommendations? == Example of what I need to work Assume I have a

I''m a newbie. My first app is using a table called cases. With just "scaffold :case" I get the basic list to show up. I just did a "generate scaffold case case" (I think that is correct). Now when I try to list my cases, I''m getting a syntax error on all of the view source code that references "case". ie. <% for case in @cases %> Thanks

All, I want to know in the Application.rb controller if I''m on the login screen. When I''m on the page I care about the controller variable is "#<ActiveRbac::UserController:0x408b3d6c>" So I want something like: if controller contains ActiveRbac::UserController What is the right syntax for the above? Thanks Greg -- Greg Freemyer The Norcross Group Forensics

I''m trying to write a test like the one at the bottom of page 148 in Agile Rails. I''m using rails 1.0 I''ve created the fixture correctly I''m pretty sure because the test database table is being populated per the fixture. I have what I think is a simple unit test: ========= require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' class CaseTest

All, I just installed ruby 1.8.4 on my SUSE 10.0 box. It was slightly convoluted so I thought I would post the solution here. Once this runs for a day or so I will try upgrading my rails to 1.1 === Ruby 1.8.4 on SUSE 10.0 Howto I downloaded the src.rpm from http://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/src/ruby-1.8.4-9.src.rpm Then I installed it with

I''m a newbie, but it seems like edit and show should somehow share a partial form. In particular I''ve customized the layout of my edit form by using a table and multiple rows/columns and I want my show form to look the same. Currently I''ve modified my show view to use _form, but now all the fields are read/write and obviously they need to be read only on the show form.

I have a simple Intranet app I want to make accessible via the Internet for remote access by our employees. I want to use ssl (https) connections and I''ve found enough messages to imply Webrick as included in rails can do the job. The message at http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/2005-January/001993.html even appears to tell me exactly how to do it by modifying

I''ve seen that Rails 1.1 is not reliable with Ruby 1.8.2 so you should upgrade to 1.8.4 I''m running ruby 1.8.3. What''s the story with it? Do I need to upgrade before I try Rails 1.1? Thanks Greg -- Greg Freemyer The Norcross Group Forensics for the 21st Century

I see from http://rubyonrails.org/api/classes/ActionController/Components.html that is possible to pass paramaters to a component. I don''t understand the exact syntax. I''m trying: @master_id = @params[''master_id''] in the components controller but it is not working. ==== Details: In my calling view I have: <%= h(@opportunity.id) %> <div

Hi guys, I just wanted to announce the imminent release of the next revision of my autoDB Administrative Console. Now with: * Validations * A ton of association-related bug fixes * The ability to include the fields in belongs_to models into the form itself * AJAX improvements * Fixes to activate/deactivate and destroy * Rudimentary support for layouts Also, I made a change to the way

Hi all of both RoR Core and TMail. You may know me better as the maintainer of TMail. However, TMail has been a bit difficult to get working with Ruby 1.9, so in the light of that, I sat down over the past few months and wrote myself an all encompasing mail gem. Mail passes all of its hundreds of specs equally well in Ruby 1.8.6, 1.8.7 and 1.9.1. Mail reads every email in the TMail test suite

The following two posts (at the bottom) were posted to engine- users@lists.rails-engines.org and suggests further issues with 1.1.4 I''m forwarding it here for two reasons: 1. Just a heads-up that 1.1.4 breaks engines that are customised. login/user_engine are probably almost as widely deployed as Typo, and if you''ve done any controller-level customisation, 1.1.4 appears to
