similar to: error_messages_for broken in edge

Hi, I wonder why error_messages_for take strings as params instead of instance variables. error_messages_for ''user'' instead of error_messages_for @user ''user'' is translated into @user eventually. If so, who not take the instance variables directly? Is there any reason for that? Thanks in advance. Sam -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi guys, I just upgraded to the latest version of Rails 1.1 and am getting some odd error messages. Specifically, I have the line: <%= error_messages_for ''user'' %> at the top of one of my .rhtml files and of course a variable @user. When an error occurs when saving ''user'', instead of getting the error message (which happened fine in Rails 1.0), I now

I just switched to Edge Rails (revision 5207) since I want to use the BigDecimal support for an e-commerce website.. Unfortunately, some of my old code seems to be breaking things.. First off, it looks like my "skip_before_filter :check_authentication, :check_authorization, :only => [:login, :forgot_password]" doesn''t work at all, since the before_filter gets executed for

Just learning Rails.. So this is probably a noob question. My apologies. Could anyone please give me a quick summary/example on the usage of error_messages_for?

Hi all, I am trying to change the default formatting for the error_messages_for. To quote from the ROR manual: /////////// error_messages_for(object_name, options = {}) Returns a string with a div containing all the error messages for the object located as an instance variable by the name of object_name. This div can be tailored by the following options: header_tag - Used for the header of

I have a model Area which has_many Streets. The Area has a couple of attributes of its own but mostly I want to be able to add/delete/update Streets for a particular Area, but all on one page rather than having a separate view for editing a Street. I''ve managed to get a form displayed with a row for each Street already assigned to the Area by using form fields with

I have the following code and I am not able to get it working.

I am having trouble getting error_messages_for to work.

Hi, just a simple question between error_message_on / error_messages_for ... Well, if you use error_messages_for in your web page, there is no problem even if anObject==nil (for example , the first time you load your form) whereas error_message_on must be use with an instanciated object ... So, you always has to double check if anObject is not nil before using error_message_on ? I

So is the official stance as per edge rails that multiple class definitions must go into separate files? I was trying to use STI with acts_as_attachment, to have all my attachment classes go into a single file, for example: attachment.rb class Attachment < ActiveRecord::Base end class UserPicture < Attachment belongs_to :user, :foreign_key => ''owner_id''

As you know you can create your own .rake files in lib/tasks and Rails will automatically find them - as Rake 0.7 adds namespace support and Rails is already taking advantage of these namespaces if you are on Edge Rails I thought it would make a lot of sense if Rails automatically namespaced your own custom rake files, so I raised a ticket for this and I''ve now implemented it
