Add the following in the model you want to use them in include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper include ActionController::UrlWriter However, when I try something like

I am attempting to integrate a main navigation section into my web application. Naturally the easiest and DRY way to do this would be to either include it in a layout, or as a partial. The only problem is that I want the link for the current page to have its own css id ("current"). The only way I can think to accomplish this is to just include the navigation in every page, but this is

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

I can''t figure out why I am getting a failure. It renders out fine in the browser. <h1>New member</h1> <%= error_messages_for :member %> <% form_for(:member, :url => members_path) do |f| %> <fieldset> <legend>Member Info</legend> <p><label for="member[first_name]">First Name:</label> <%=

This is more difficult than I originally anticipated. Any help in figuring this out is most appreciated: This is a code snippet from my header.rhtml (or erb) file that draws tabbed menus: <ul> <% [["Home", "/home" ], ["Positions", "/company" ], ["Leads",

Hi, I have some named routes defined e.g. map.public and wish to use link_to_unless_current() to disable link. However, as I''ve seen from forum discussions and the API doc, the issue lies with the fact that the named_route_url() method generated by a named route does not default to only_path = true like url_for. Therefore, the current_page? within link_to_unless_current() will not

Hi all, I''ve been cleaning up our routing file, and removed the default map.connect ":controller/:action" route.

We have a generic navbar partial which is rendered in the index page of several different controllers. The navbar contains

Hi - Yet another rails newbie ... I have a simple list view rhtml with data returned from a db and displayed within a table. Each row has a show action link_to based on the id field in the table row. i.e. http://127.0.0.1:3000/myapp/show/1 http://127.0.0.1:3000/myapp/show/2 http://127.0.0.1:3000/myapp/show/3 I want to override the default show view but I don''t understand how I can do

Hello, I have one Q. What is better when using as leaf in one leaf with several hosts (like subnet) to splice traffic equaly to user number? Like 2 users = 256/2, 3 = 256/3 and so on.
