Hi, This question isn''t Rails-specific, but since Basecamp (& the family of premium 37signals apps) have the best implementation of credit-card processing I''ve seen, I''m hoping maybe DHH could lend an answer.

Admittedly this is probably pretty stupid of me, but there are just some things I can't understand by reading documentation. Any suggestions or recommendations about how to handle my problem are greatly appreciated. I'm trying to achieve the same functionality as my Nortel PBX, without rewriting much 'C' code.

I love using ActiveRecord Migrations to build tables. Sometimes, I don''t want to use autogenerated PK''s - I want to set them automatically (why? I''m importing read only data from a large list of medications, and want to use the PK''s assigned by the medication research company...). Is there anyway to do this using Migrations? I know that I don''t

When submitting billing information in the past I''ve always used attr_accessor for credit card details as they should not be saved in the database. In addition I always end up storing the card expiration date so that the date form helper works correctly.

I have a model where I need to calculate one of the fields when I create a new instance. It seems to me that I should do this in the model code and that I should override the new and/or create methods. Is this the right approach and, if so, how can I execute the existing method but add on my calculation? I want something like: def create -Do the original create first- field =

Hi all, I''m having a problem with a join inside a paginate, the code is like this: @ruta_pages, @rutas = paginate :rutas, :conditions => conds_arr, :joins => "AS ru LEFT JOIN vehiculos AS ve ON ru.vehiculo_id = ve.id", :per_page => 10, :order => "fecha DESC" The problem with this, is that the query returns the

"Parent1" "has_many :childmodels, :order => :positionp1" and "Parent2" "has_many :childmodels, :order => :positionp2". i.e. The child is independently positioned within each of its parents. This works fine and gets me the useful

Hi, I have a situation I''m hoping someone out there may be able to shed some light on. I have a Rails app (2.1.0 on Ruby 1.8.7) with a wizard-based sign up process, that has recently been changed from storing incremental data in the database to having a medium sized object graph living in the user session until the user completes the entire sign up process (this is a business

Hi all, I'm seeing slow transfers to/from my samba server. I just tried to copy a 270MB file from a samba share to an XP machine. At first, the estimated time displayed as 141 minutes :( The odd thing is that if I then flood-ping from the server (in this case, I pinged my dsl router), the transfer completes in about 10 seconds. Hitting F5 repeatedly when browsing a share on the server

I'm trying to figure out if a file has changed since the last rsync call.

Adding the "dry-run" option "n" to the command line always

We have tables Users and Communities linked by has_an_belongs_to_many. The join table Communities_Users has additional fields [ is_active, is_blocked, join_date] etc. These are populated using @user.push_with_attributes(:is_active => true,...). Later on how do we update or retrieve the attributes in the link table for a given user or a community with doing it explicitly using SQL? Thanks,

The email''s auth code is taken from the same variable, and

I''m getting confused. If I have a view (.rhtml), I can use a field helper like: <%= text_field :mymodel, :attribute %> This uses the value from @mymodel.attribute Now, if I am rendering a template normally (i.e. not partial), I would expect @mymodel to be a model object defined as an instance variable in the controller. However, if I am rendering a partial template, I
