Rails 1.1 was a big upgrade with a lot of new features and we''ve been working hard since its release to polish off the kinks revealed after it was deployed to the masses.

Hello, I submitted a patch <http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3287> ( http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3287) a couple of days ago. The patch adds some methods into and changes the existing methods in the CaptureHelper module. It should not, as I can see, affect any existing Rails implementations. I added the relevant unit tests and all but one of the tests pass. The test that fails failed

Cheers, I have a problem with 1.0 and a habtm relationship between User and Article. I want to save all articles that users read.

I''m working on a RoR project and a requirement has popped up that would required certain actions to happen at certain time intervals (as opposed to having a user initiate the action). Is there anything similar to Java''s Quartz library, *nix cron, or anything of the like for Rails? I''m certainly willing to help with/test Ruby code if someone on the list is already

Hi all, I submitted a patch the other day for an issue I ran into running an "add_column" migration on a sqlite3 database when there is existing data in the table, and the new column has ":null=>false". Details at http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/5215. The issue I encountered was not picked due to the unit test not having any actual data in it before running the

I started two weeks ago with rails and im amazed of what can be done in a short time, i already finished the agile development with rails and some of the tutorials at the documentation section of the rubyonrails.com site. But i realize that many of the tutos and examples around the web and books are using earlier versions of rails (0.x.x) and some of that code and coding practices are

To play with RJS I just made a "rake freeze edge". But this copies only the libs into vendor/rails and any attempt of "rake update_javascripts" fails. But all the he required javascripts are there, at: BASEPATH/vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_view/helpers/javascripts/ Except of prototype, they seem to have no version number, so I am asking whether I should take those

I see in the new Agile Rails 2nd edition that components are going out of style? Is this so? has anybody abandoned the idea of components for helpers? Specifically I''m considering a menu sytem for a website that depends heavily on the users permissions to decide which menu options a user would need to see.

It appears that you cannot use migrations (out of the box) with mysql 4.0.16, because when creating a table, the statement says "ENGINE=InnoDb", instead of "TYPE=InnoDB".
