I have been working on implementing a variant of the depot example as a method of learning rails. I have come up against a css question that is driving me nuts. This may not be the right forum to ask this question. If anyone would like to refer me to another place to ask, I would be grateful. Most of the code that I am working on is straight from the examples, with minor alterations. What is

Hello, Im in the process of working my way through the 2.ed of the agile book. As many of you already know, the book goes through the regular development cycle of the Depot application. I have hit a wall when they started talking about the sessions and the exact mechanics of how an item is added to the session. The code looks like this: depot/app/controllers/store_controller: def add_to_cart

Sorry for the long Subject line, but I couldn''t figure out what else to call it. :-) Just a quick announcement to tell you that I have worked through Chapters 6 and 7 so far of "Agile Web Development with Rails", using Ackbar/KirbyBase to develop the Depot app instead of MySQL. You can find my blog about it at: http://houseonfire.wordpress.com For those who

Hello all, I am a bit hung up. I have created a simple table (pluralized) named aircrews and I have edited my database.yml file to point to the database that I created and that is holding the table aircrews. I have gone through the depot tutorial in the Agile book and when I have run the scaffolding command for the depot app all has worked fine for the table products. Now when I run the ruby

Hello. Where is there an Agile Messageboard? On the first part of the Depot example, a price field shouldn''t be an integer right? (it should be more of a float since a price has decimals) Dominic Son -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi *, In an attempt to go back to the drawing board and learn RoR some more - I have built the depot application from the agile book. After finishing I tried to create a user for the admin section, however when ever I go to: http://localhost:3000/login/add_user It redirects to the login action, I don''t see the [add user] submit button?? I am sure this is connected to the

Hi, I want to build a rails backed site which, in addition to some dynamic content, also comprises a number of static content files.

I''m working on building the shopping cart in the Depot tutorial in the Agile Web Development book. I''m at the part (about page 80) where you build the ability to add items to the cart. I''m able to get to /store/display_cart/ and it seems items are being added, but if I just click on a link to add an item (/store/add_to_cart/2) it gives me this: NoMethodError in

anyone can explain me why in the Agile Depot Tutorial application they use i.product_id to find if a product already exist in the cart, because the cart contains items, each of them references a product.

I have been using the Spring framework (a lightweight J2EE java framework with some special characteristics) but I am so impressed with RoR that I am porting over many applications. In order to "dive into Rails", of course the second thing to do was get myself an IDE, and since I''ve been using Eclipse for the
