similar to: InPlaceSelectEditor question

I''ve followed the instructions in the Rails Recipe #1 and have the in_place_editor_field working but now I want to tweak how it looks and behaves. I''d like to be able to override the default yellow highlight color, which is done using the highlightcolor param according to the scriptaculous documentation (unless I''m missing something). I''m new to Ruby and Rails

I have a few in_place_editor_fields working fine. I can access some of the script.aculo.us options such as :cols, :save_text, :cancel_text, but how do I access the okButton = false & submitOnBlur options? Basically, I want no submit button, a cancel button, and the ability to submit when I tab out of the field. Is this doable without writing a helper? (avoiding digging that deep so

I have a real-world application with some complex queries that I want to convert to Arel (as part of an upgrade to Rails 3.1). So that I can understand what I''m doing before I flail around in my real app, I wrote a little sample app (just the models) with some similar associations -- one table joined with itself and more tables that join to another table, so there are some queries that

I''m building an app that needs i18n support across the entire database (i.e. localized attributes). In order to do this I''ve created a special HABTM join table that can be associated with _any_ other table: create table language_strings ( for_table varchar(255) not null, foreign_id int not null, language_id varchar(5) not null, attr_name varchar(255) not null, value text

Hi all, I have a model that "belongs_to" many other models, many of those models are just list of names, like country, state, city, profession ... I read about the country_select helper. Is better to have all those tables or use custom helpers? what the rails way? Thanks. For example : http://pastie.caboo.se/104092 # = Schema # country_id integer # city_id integer #

Hi, I''m trying to write a helper for Scriptaculous'' InPlaceCollectionEditor component. I''ve already submitted a patch (http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/4302). This was a drunk patch; it needs a bit of work (Don''t drink & code!). So far I''ve gotten it to work correctly with normal collections, but I want to use it for belongs_to relations as

Hi, I''m wondering how I should go about making my website multi-lingual. Basically, there will be different content for the different languages, and that''s not really a problem... all I need to do is give each content entry in the database a language_id. But the problem is with the non-content text, eg, "In order to access this area, you must be logged in",

I''m trying to implement internationalization in my app. I followed the instructions on the Globalize example (http://wiki.globalize- rails.org/globalize/show/Example+Application), using in_place_editor. The translation works fine, however, I can''t get in_place_editor to work to translate the strings. My controller: class Admin::TranslateController < ApplicationController

(I posted this earlier but it doesn''t appear on the group, so I''m writing it again, If it appears twice, I apologize.) I have a drop-down box that allows the user to select a language. I want to use Ajax to render a filtered list of items based on the language selected. I don''t want the user to press a Submit button nor refresh the page, of course. I''m using

Im not very familiar with RoR so this question might be kind of silly. I want to store strings from different lenguages in a database. I want to have the key for the string in english be the ''key'' for all the corresponding traslations of that string. For example: (database columns) lenguage-------------key-----------------value----- english hello

Hi, Is session[:return_to] something Rails maintains to quickly go back to the previous uri without having to keep track of the action name? Or, do we have to actually set it in our actions?

Hello, please have a look at this: My tables: create_table :languages do |t| t.column :name, :string, :limit => 3 t.column :title, :string, :limit => 30 end create_table :categories do |t| t.column :category_id, :integer (3.) t.column :created_at, :timestamp t.column :updated_at, :timestamp end create_table :categorytranslations, :id

Hi. in the Rails Agile book here''s what was happening: >>> module StoreHelper def hidden_div_if(condition, attributes = {}) if condition attributes["style" ] = "display: none" end attrs = tag_options(attributes.stringify_keys) "<div #{attrs}>" end # format_price method ... end Note that we cheated slightly here. We copied code from the Rails

Hello, Im trying to understand how this helper method works: def hidden_div_if(condition, attributes = {}) if condition attributes["style"] = "display: none" end attrs = tag_options(attributes.stringify_keys) "<div #{attrs}>" end This is how they are calling it: <%= hidden_div_if(@cart.items.empty?, :id => "cart") %>

Hi, i need to construct a link as following "<a href=\"#{CONFIG[''URLS''][''Xyz'']}\#{url}\"#{tag_options}>#{name || url}</a>" But here due to escape character #{url} not give actual value it treated as a string. how to solve this ? if i do "<a

Hi, I''ve created some extensions to script.aculo.us InPlaceEditor, allowing the use of either server-driven, or local autocompletion. I''ve also created new helper methods in Rails for this functionality. My question is, is there any interest that I package this and make it available as a plugin, or something like that?

What would be the best way to create a form select dropdown box and upon "submit" have it directly go to a controller method view? I have something that somewhat works, but I think there is probably a much easier way to do it. As of now, I have the dropdown list which when the form is submitted is handed to a controller method which basically I have my dropdown box: <%=

Hi All, I posted earlier about a problem I was having with the various remote view methods escaping all the javascript in my callbacks. I was quickly informed that that''s just what they do, and offered some workarounds. However, in actually working with this, I''m finding that this one little thing is forcing me to write some REALLY ugly code. Where I thought I could

My envrionment is Rails 1.1.2, Ruby 1.8.4, MySQL 5.0.21 on WinXP. When I run ''rake migrate'' after pulling the lastest 1.1 branch of Globalize plugin, I get the following error message: (in C:/Rails/Application/medicalmind) == GlobalizeMigration: migrating ============================================== -- create_table(:globalize_countries, {:force=>true}) -> 0.2110s

Hi. I am writing an application that has a lot of boolean conditional display logic, like this: <% if user.description then %> <p class="css_class"><%= user.description %></p> <% end %> Often the displayed content is more complex than the above, and to clean up my views I am trying to pull a lot of this sort of thing into partials. However, the problem
