Using Application.rhtml as layout for all controllers
I put my nav system in application layout. that way any controller
loading will have the nav system. I have one problem though - the <%=
yield %> is in the body, so how would my controllers specify other css
files?
my application layout would look like this:
<html>
<head>
title
css include
javascript include
</head>
<body>
nav system
<%=yield%>

Prevent users from entering urls
How could I make it so that links on my page could link to a controllers
action, but if the user manually entered the url, it would redirect them
back to the main page? Is this possible?
Thank you,

How do I update a div''s content in the controller?
Without using an RJS, is there a call I can do in the controller? All I
want to do is this statement, but in the controller:
new Effect.toggle(''notifier_nav'',''appear'', {duration:12.0});
Thanks,

How to upload all images in a folder?
Instead of making a form to upload one picture at a time, I''d like to
have the File Column plugin accept a directory, and have each picture be
uploaded and thumbnails created (w/ RMagick).
Has anyone done this?
Anyone have a good idea where to start if I were to do it on my own?
Thanks,

Why does no one like render_component?
Maybe I''m missing the point?
Lets take for example albums of pictures. If I have a scaffold for
each, and I''m showing an album, what if I want to list all of the
pictures that are in the album?
Surely, I''d want to call the List action in the picture controller.
render_component would do this perfectly. But we''re told not to use
render_component. So

Call action & display nothing?
Can you do a periodically_call_remote to an action but then not display
any new view? say the new action was called ADD. I don''t want to do an
rhtml file for add, and I don''t want to render anything in the
controller... I want to leave the page as it is. How is this done?
Thanks,

Mouse Location
Is the only way to get the mouse location by using javascript? Or does
rails do it for me?!? :)
Does anyone have a simple script that they use? I''m trying to put a div
right where the mouse is clicked on a link... so I''m looking for it to
work like this:
a hre f=. onclick=Element.setStyle(''title_login'', {left:

RJS problem
I have an odd problem while trying to use a simple rjs.
_test.rjs : page.alert "test"
test.rhtml: <script><%=render_partial(''test'')%></script>
When I am attempting to view controller/test the page comes as if it was a
text file.
So i am actually seeing:

Newbie help re: "dynamic" navigation menu
Hi
I am trying to get my head around how you would "efficiently" do a
left-hand navigation menu structure derived from various database table
entries.
Example is loosely based on AWDwR''s depot app. Say you wanted to
instead to have the left-hand nav links show the following:
Books
book title 1
book title 2
...
CDs
CD title 1
CD title 2

adding class or id tags to tags like linkto and form
I''m trying to figure out things like this by myself so I don''t bother my
developer and slow him down. How do I add class or id css attributes to
tags like this:
<%= form_remote_tag :url => { :action => "send_url" } %>
<%= link_to_remote "My Profile URL", :url => { :action =>
"send_profile_url", :id => @user.id } %>

Links on the left hand side - are components necessary?
Hello,
Maybe this is super-trivial...
I need to have a list of links on the left hand side of my application,
for *every* single page.
So, I''ve created a layout called "main" (main.rhtml) under
view/layouts, and included >layout "main"< in pretty all of my
controllers.
main.rhtml has, amongst all the other HTML stuff:

How can I minimize SQL queries
I have users, who have friends that are also users in mysql database.
I have a foreign key for both users, so that I can reference their data
directly. My problem is displaying friends. My for statement would
look something like this:
for i in(0..@user.friends.length)
puts @user.friends[i].user.name
end
so @user is the user that i''m displaying friends for... .friends are the

Navigation Helper
I am attempting to integrate a main navigation section into my web
application. Naturally the easiest and DRY way to do this would be to
either include it in a layout, or as a partial. The only problem is
that I want the link for the current page to have its own css id
("current"). The only way I can think to accomplish this is to just
include the navigation in every page, but this is

handling navigation tabs - use sessions?
I think this is a fairly easy question done several times in several
languages, but on a traditional ''tab'' based navigation webpage, what''s
the best way to handle the active state?
I am using this in my view:
<% for category in @categories %>
<% if the condition is met to make this the active tab %>
