I have an urgent question -- in the list.rhtml file, I only want to display certain columns instead of dumping out all the columns in the database. Could someone shed some light this topic? Thanks!!!

How can I manipulate RoR to produce an .xhtml file from the view template(s)? I see how I can use layouts and paritals to efficiently produce the content and tags that I need, but how can I get the actual file that''s produced to be named with the .xhtml suffix, (rather than *.htm, as it currently is)? [Note: I never thought the suffix was all that important, but evidenly Mozilla

Hello all. Am relatively new to RoR and I am pondering how to do something without using components since they appear to be "coda non grata". I have a standard layout that is used by all controllers.

Hi! I know that the web is essentially stateless, so I was wondering about how lost connections can be managed. I have an application that posts data to a web form. This form has a large number of items (about 38) and I''m a bit concerned about the connection being lost while posting the data. Is it safe to assume that the web application will reject the transmission if the right

Hi, I''m trying to follow the "AWDR" example of storing certain types of numbers (in my case, percentages not money) as integers in the database. I understand from the Depot application how to format the output to have 2 places (or n places for that matter) decimal. Now, I"m wondering about the input. It''s more natural for people to enter numbers as

There are areas of my application that "want" to use a url structure like domain/<human_readable_param>/<Module>/<Controller>/<Action>/<Id> Please note that the human readable parameter I need to inject is NOT related to the <id> being used by the action/controller pair.

I am pretty much new at this ROR game and had what I think to be a simple question. I have a set of Sponsors that I would like to be able to select one at random and display in the my html. I have already set up the DB, scaffolded, set index controller and all is working smoothly. I know that I can display them all by doing <% for sponsor in @sponsors %> <%= sponsor.name %>

Hello all. For the purpose of my question, let''s imagine we''re building some search functionality. You''re a sales person (you poor sap). And you''re hanging out in the SalesCenterController.

I''m trying to re-flow email messages, removing the line breaks that get added by mail programs so that the lines don''t exceed 72 characters. Mail.app and Thunderbird seem to insert a space character before each added line break.

What I want: I get a normal http request containing a URL from a remote server. Instead of redirecting to that URL, I want to load it into an iframe on an existing page. I''ve tried a number of approaches with no success. Can anybody suggest a good way to do this? Alternatively, if you can say "this is bloody impossible, because....", that would be helpful, too. --Al Evans
