similar to: overriding constants

What is the best way to override some of the FormHelper default options? Right now I''m adding this to the beginning of my environment.rb: ActionView::Helpers::InstanceTag::DEFAULT_TEXT_AREA_OPTIONS = { "cols" => 80, "rows" => 5 } Is that the way it''s supposed to be done? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message

Hi, I''m having some trouble overriding/defining the default_field_options constant without raising a warning. I''ve tried adding the code to do it in an initializer but that produces a warning (because the constant is already frozen), after some googling I found a recommendation to put it in the environment.rb file but that then that throws uninitialized constant ActionView

I have in my view the following: <% 0.upto(@num_performances) do |idx| -%> <%= text_field ''performance'', ''city'', :index => idx, %> <%= text_field ''performance'', ''venue'', :index => idx, %> <% end -%> and in my controller I have: @performance = [Performance.new("city" =>

Can someone explain why form helpers appear to bypass any model methods I override for fields that are bound to database fields? It would be great if someone could tell me how to force the form field, etc to call the method instead of looking at the database / attributes collection. Let''s say I have a column called ''price'' in my database table "books"

Guys, I''ve been chasing a problem with country_select for the past few hours now. My intention was pretty simple...use the following line in a form: <p><label for="country_region">Country</label> <%= f.country_select :country_region, "United States" %></p> However, for the life of me, I couldn''t get it to work. I kept getting

I want to override the ''tag'' method in ActionView::Helpers::TagHelper to do some generalized error handling similar to the way scaffolding puts a red border around fields that fail validation. I''ve created a file lib/rails_patches/tag_helper.rb which contains the following. module ActionView module Helpers module TagHelper alias_method :orig_tag, :tag

I''m attempting to use the example given in the Rails Recipes book chapter 2, to create a select drop-down using the InPlaceEditor function (modified to be InPlaceSelectEditor. The example given works (a country list drop-down), but I''m attempting to use it to display a list of items generated from an object in another table that is linked to the table that I''m editing.

I would like to have a date control on a page and I would like a behavior similar to what you get using date_select with the :include_blank => true option where the first value in the dropdown is "- Month -", "- Day -", or "- Year -" rather than a blank value for the respective month, day, and year select fields. I took a look at the ruby source for

Can someone please help me with this. I have an Images table :- create table images ( id integer unsigned not null auto_increment primary key, image varchar(200) not null default '''' )ENGINE=InnoDB default CHARSET=latin1; And a car table :- create table cars ( id integer unsigned not null auto_increment primary key, user_id integer unsigned not null, title varchar(100) not

Hi, i have some issues with the default rails error wrapping. It wraps errors in a div with class ''fieldsWithError'', which is not good practice in my eyes. Adding a class ''error'' to the field would be much nicer. My solution to the problem: build your own FormBuilder. Funny enough, i found no (nice) possibility to switch error wrapping off while using the

I''ve installed the postgres-pr gem, and it is found using gem list v0.4.0.

Hi all, I''m fairly new to rails and thus might be missing something here, but I think I have found a but in ActionPack. If this is not the right place to post this, please let me know where. I discovered this issue while attempting to use the lastest edge version of ajax_scaffold (mooey, MUI, whatever it''s going to be called). I kept getting the error: private method

Why select_date and select_date? I dont understand why having both (backward compat?). I also look that their source are different, one use the InstanceTag and others calls 3 select_(year, month, day) functions.

Hi everybody, I needed change field error rendering for some forms created with Rail''s form builder. I found solution by changing ActionView::Base::field_error_ proc to own before form and changing it back after form rendered. I don''t like this solution :) It''s not thread-safe (but it''s not so important, nobody really wants it :), but I don''t like

Hi there. I am using RSpec for unit and functional testing on a project. I have however found the (experimental) RSpec stories to be un-intuitive in some situations.

This introduces support to run P2V without X server. Runtime parameters are specified via kernel command line making it hopefully suitable for automated migration with a little help of PXE boot. Patchset is not squashed and represents dev. history.
