Does anyone know of a fix for the issue with prototype and replacing table rows in IE? render :update do |page| page.replace "row_#{params[:id]}", :partial => ''wireless_request/wrequest'', :locals => {:wrequest => @wrequest} end This ends up making IE throw an "rjs error [object error]" Searching around I found a couple of posts about

I have a User class with a field called admin which is a boolean that determines if the user is or is not an administrator. I want to make it impossible for the last administrator for an account to be removed from the system. I need to protect against this both when deleting a user and when editing a user as you can revoke a user''s administrator privileges via a form. User

I am using the drop shadow technique described at http://www.1976design.com/blog/archive/2003/11/14/shadows/ to give several of my divs drop shadows. That part works fine. What doesn''t work so well is when I try to BlindDown a div in Firefox and it ends up ignoring the content below it and just overlapping it. In IE this problem does not occur. In Firefox the overlapping does

I am working on an application where users sign up for one of several plans. Each plan has a different monthly fee. There is no long term contract but I would like to bill the users automatically each month unless service is canceled. What credit card gateways would you recommend for use with a rails application? My criteria in order of importance are 1. API that will let me work in

I followed the instructions from the ~/RailsOnDebian tutorial to set up Rails on a FreeBSD. (That tutorial is down, can it be hosted somewhere else?). Now I have some questions regarding the configuration of Lighttpd for Rails. If there are FAQs in my questions don''t hesitate to point me to the right resource... Probably a trivial one: where do I access a Rails site when it is

I am working on writing a search method where a user can type a string of words and I return all the objects that have fields that match all of the words in one or a combination of fields. Person first_name last_name Pet name Person has_many :pets I want to write some SQL so that if I search for "Tony AAAA" I will get all the people who have Tony and AAA either in their

Hi list, I''m having another problem deploying my Rails application. I set up the servers and apache2 configuration using the excellent essay by Duncan Davidson: http://duncandavidson.com/essay/2006/01/railsonapache However, he describes proxying using a subdomain. What if I want to proxy the requests of www.domain.com/railsapp/<url> to www.domain.com:8888/<url> and reverse

Hi, I''m having difficulty getting ruby running via Lighttpd and fastcgi. My lighttpd.conf reads: server.port = 81 server.pid-file = "/tmp/test_lighttpd.pid" server.modules = ( "mod_redirect", "mod_access", "mod_fastcgi", "mod_accesslog", "mod_simple_vhost" ) server.document-root = "/tmp/mis/public"

It would appear that using :include on a model that has_many with an :order on another model makes it so that the order is ignored. Is this supposed to happen? Strikes me as odd behavior. For example class Farmer < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :cows, :order => ''position'' end class Cow < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_list :scope => :farmer end If I do

I have action caching setup for several actions of an application but I want the caching to only run for my administrators and have all other users see non-cached pages. Is there a way to do this? Perhaps something like passing a block to caches_action or setting some sort of flag in my authentication method? If this is not possible with action or fragment caching does anyone know of a

Dear experts, I have rail site that is running lighttpd and fcgi. I want the default domain to serve the rails application, and I also want to have a virtualhost (bugs.mysite) to resolve to a bugzilla instance. Bugzilla is basically Perl application called through CGI. I tried to find pointers on how to set fcgi to run both rails dispatcher and other cgi scripts in a different virtualhost, and

I recently setup a subdomain to run my app as a staging site before pushing changes to the main site. So i setup a subdomain in cpanel, symlinked that the directory to point to a staging directory where i check''d out my rails app. However, when i go to staging.railsapp.com, it times out and says application failed to start properly. I''m not sure what is causing this, but

I have built a webshop in rails, now it''s time for invoice handling through a third party. The communication will be done by xml-rpc. The built in ruby xml-rpc doesnt seem to be compatible with the third party so I have to use a special php-script (provided by the third party) that will handle the interaction with them. Where on the server should/can I put the script? I would prefer

I am having trouble getting error_messages_for to work. My controller(relevant parts) looks like def configure @account = session[:account] @user = User.new end def add_new_user_to_account @user = User.new(params[:user]) if @user.valid? session[:account].users << @user end redirect_to :action=> ''configure'' end end and my

I am looking for some advice on how to make a date select display only valid days of the year. The standard date helper allows for you to choose 31 days for every month of the year. Since not all months have 31 days this can lead to invalid date entries for scheduling. I am thinking that an approach where I have a drop down for month and then use AJAX or normal client side javascript to

My .rjs file page.visual_effect :BlindUp, "people", :queue => ''front'' #first action page.replace_html "people", :partial => ''person/person_compressed'', :collection => @search_results , :queue => ''end'' #second action, after first is done page.visual_effect :BlindDown, "people" , :queue =>

I have two before_filters for a few of my controllers. They are running my own methods authorize and admin_authorize. authorize is called on just about every action to make sure that a user is logged in. admin_authorize is called on about 80% of the actions and is used to make sure that a user is an administrator. If a user tries to access an admin_authorize protected action without being

Let''s say that there is a web application which comes in several different plans. Each plan has a different number of users and content items allowed for an account. Obviously we can allow the user to upgrade to a higher level plan by just increasing their limits but how do we handle downgrades? If the user is only allowed x items on the downgraded plan and they currently have

Hi Guys, I hope someone can help me out. I am trying to configure two applications to run on lighttpd and each app will have its own domain. My machine is running on Fedora. When I run my lighttpd with the following conf file, I get no error but when I check out my app, it dishes out a 404 error- the 404 being served isn''t the 404 inside the railsapp/public folder. Do hope someone
