Hello everyone. I am not sure if this is the right place to post, please redirect me if there is a mailinglist more specifically dealing with prototype.js. After playing around with the very inspiring prototype library I have found a rather annoying thing, that makes the usefulness of the Enumerable mixin for Hashes questionable, if I am not totally wrong (again :-). Here an example:

Was trying to understand more about the internals of wxruby-swig, where does the big chunk of XML comes from? I saw something similiar in Python, is that massaged out of there? The codes produced by extractxml.rb and wxclasses-2.4.2.xml is quite different from the original header files. Just for example the WxDialog class. OnXXX are non-virtual in WxWidgets, but virtual in wxruby-swig

I''ve been unserializing XML in PHP with the XML_Serializer class, and I''m wondering if anyone knows of such a class for Ruby. Nothing fancy, just perhaps a simple way of converting arbitrary XML to a Ruby object. Maybe this has been implemented somewhere already? Thanks, Raymond

I''m really new to Ruby on Rails, and I''m trying to read an XML file with REXML. No matter what I try, I am only getting the last result returned from my query. I should be getting 365 results.

Got a question hopefully someone can answer - I am working on functionality to match on certain nodes of a largish (65mb) xml file. I implemented this with REXML and was 2 minutes and counting before I killed the process. After this, I just opened the console and loaded the file into a string and did a regex search for my data -- the result was almost instantaneous. The question is, if I can get

Hi One of our customers has a Filemaker database which needs to be accessed for some data. Using the Web Companion, I can query the database for an XML version of the data. I need to be able to push this data into an array of hashes, so I can access it in a more convenient way. Filemaker is able to provide me with 2 XML formats (DSO-XML and FMP-XML): *********** DSO-XML ***********

Why can it not find my object? What am i missing here? Here is my code: require ''rexml/document'' include REXML # classes to represent the objects and relationships in the xml file class Article attr_accessor :id, :post, :archive, :ntype, :head, :blurb, :body, :fblurb, :fimage, :att, :source, :copy, :brand end # the base parser class BaseXMLParser def initialize(filename)

I had been comparing IE and Firefox Ajax performance, and since I have a couple of Unix boxes in my workshop, I threw Konqueror into the mix, and reported here earlier today (or yesterday) that Konqueror ( 3.4.3) could handle Ajax perfectly, at least as far as the simplest AWDWR Ajax example (./example/index) was concerned. It occurred to me to do a more grueling test. I took the

Hey all, I''m seeing a strange behavior in my spec that I can''t account for. I''ve got a route that looks like this: map.writing \ ''/writing'', :controller => ''abstracts'', :action => ''index'', :index => { :select => ''all'' } and I have template code that looks like this: <br

Hello, I came to know of mongrel by pure chance, it interrested me cause webrick never worked and instantrails for rails was very slow. the problem with webrick is/was is that it says just this: >ruby script/server c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rexml/entity.rb:21: warning: character class has `-'' without escape c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rexml/entity.rb:21: warning: character

Hi, After following the excellent tutorials in the Agile Web Development with Rails book, I was able to get my webservice working pretty much perfectly :) I can access it via SOAP and XML-RPC and look at service.wsdl to find the API. What I can''t do however is get the API for the XML-RPC call. It fails with : Internal protocol error: NilClass is not a valid input stream. It must

Hi All, I bought the ''beta book'' of Rails Recipes from pragprog and there''s a tutorial in there for producing RSS 2.0, i''d like to generate RSS (RDF) 1.0 though.

hi, how can we assign an xml element value to some variable in controller? e.g. if we have <order> <id>1</id> <name>abc</name> <location>xyz</location> </order> and if we want value of name i.e. ''abc'' to be assigned in a variable declared in a controller, say order_controller, like this- temp = "value of xml element

Is there a way you can use RoR to create an .xml file? Say I had a DB full of info that I wanted to format and have export as "lorem.xml" inside of a specific directory in my web server?

Hi All, I''m trying to return XML from a Rails view of an object I built up using Builder::XmlMarkup and I find an annoying side effect is that I get an extra <to_xml/> or <to_s/> element back which makes REXML hiccup thinking I''m adding a recond root element when I try to parse the return. How can I return the XML without this last element? Thanks, Vince
