Hi ActionView::Helpers::FormHelper methods (e.g. #text_field, #check_box...) take object_name as an argument. From this argument they infer a name that is supposed to contains the reference to the relevant object. I can''t see why the FormHelper methods were designed that way. Compared to simply passing them a reference, the current way seems too complicated and an invitation to problems

Hello, I have a problem with one of my Rails-Application, I have a table and on this there is object_name and a object_nr, so i want to create a combination of both in the model for a collection box. I''ve tried something like this: def set_new_object_name objects = find(:all).to_new_object_name end def self.to_new_object_name self.new_object_name = self.object_nr + " -

Hi, i have some issues with the default rails error wrapping. It wraps errors in a div with class ''fieldsWithError'', which is not good practice in my eyes. Adding a class ''error'' to the field would be much nicer. My solution to the problem: build your own FormBuilder. Funny enough, i found no (nice) possibility to switch error wrapping off while using the

Hi all All my forms should look the same, so I think always putting the right div etc. tags around them is a violation of the DRY principle. Until now my forms look like that: <div class="text_field"> <label for="news_item_subject">Subject:</label> <%= text_field "news_item", "subject" %> </div> Now I want the default

Community, I have been putting off implementing a Date selector for too long. Tonight, I finally put it in. I made the choice to go with the datebox engine. Once I got it installed and working, I realized I didn''t like the way it required you to call it. Example: <% @dateField = model.date %> <%= date_box %> or... <% @dateField1 = model.date %> <%=

Hi all, I''m trying to use file_column to upload a picture but I''m getting the following error: "cannot convert nil into String" caused by the last line in FileColumnHelper::url_for_file_column(object_name, method) url << object.send("#{method}_relative_path") I don''t have any images uploaded for existing entries so does this not

Hello, Most of the form helpers are build using Object / Method without the possibility of using a method parameter (as I know ...) text_field(object_name, method, options = {}) how do you solve this problem ? -> (I did my own helper and generate the html ... well I think there is a better way;-) -> do I have to overide text_field(object_name, method, parameters {}, options = {})

Hi all I''m working on a Custom Formbuilder. I want it to create me with a single method call checkboxes for a given HABTM association. My model looks like this: [code=ruby]class Member < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :preferred_music_styles, :class_name => ''MusicStyle'', :join_table =>

Hi, I need to set up an initial value from controller. In my views I''ve something like <%= text_field "object", "name" %> and would like to do something like this from controller def index @object[:name] = ''default value'' end but still got an error. Object doesn''t have database model (and will not have) Thank you PS: now using

I''m trying to build a simple proxy to Amazon S3 that would allow a client to request a url that gets mapped to a S3 Object by Rails and streamed back to the client. For S3 integration, I use the highly recommended gem AWS::S3 (http://amazon.rubyforge.org/), and to send a file, I simply use the send_file function. The concept works BUT the I can''t get the file to be sent as

(2005.10.10, 14:25) I am running Samba 3.0.14a-2 on Fedora 4. I have no problem seeing the Linux file system from any of the Windows (2000, SP4) computers attached to the network. The problem is that smbd processes are created for no apparent reason and never die. I noticed this when the computer had been up for about three days and there were some 600 active smbd processes! What could be the

Hello, I'm testing an APC SMT3000RMI2U connected to an USB port with Nut 2.7.2.

Could someone explain me what does this means exactly ? What are

I will be upgrading my Samba server from 2.2.8a to 3.0.10. I currently have security set to 'share' and plan on migrating to 'ads' for improved authentication. I have one snag, though... I have remote users who reside in and are managed by a Windows domain that is not in my control. There is no trust relationship at all. If I use 'ads' security, can I add a 'valid

Hello, does any one know how to change the date of the self tests on APC UPSes ? I'd like to be able to choose the day and the hour so that it happens at office hours, in case of any problem... I've tried to do this by launching a test at a convenient time, but the self tests still occurs at the previous date and hour :-( Regards. -- Frantz de Germain D?partement Informatique UFR

Warning: I am as green as #00FF00 with rails :-) I have an rhtml view that shows a survey: /views/survey/show.rhtml. I have a Survey model, helper and controller. I''m using the acts_as_commentable plugin to collect comments, and trying to save user comments from users who have taken a survey (don''t ask -- it''s just a test). To save the comment, I need the id of the

I don''t have a blog, but wanted to share this little bit of code with other semi-beginners like myself who are still learning to take advantage of rails features. Selecting an attribute with a boolean switch is a common pattern in forms. You can do it with a check box, but radio buttons are more expressive in some situations and better convey to the user that they are making a mandatory
