Automatic finder
It looks rails automatically creates a "finder" method on models that have a "belongs_to". So I tried this in the console: c = Category.find(2) chunks = Chunk.find_by_category(c) chunks is always returned as an empty array. When I know have some chunks with a category_id of 2. Should the find_by_category do what I think it should be doing or am I completely off base?

Wrap error_messages_for() call when no instance var present
I am trying to put some smarts around a call to <%= error_messages_for %> so that when I first come into this page i.e. when my instance variable @target_list has not been defined yet, the page doesn''t break. I''m doing this: <% if @target_list? %> <%= error_messages_for ''target_list'' %> <% end %> I get a syntax error on line 1.

Best way to organize non-controller logic???
I don''t want to put certain code in my controller because I think it makes things more confusing. What is the best way to manage business logic such that it doesn''t end up in the controller? Basically, where should I put my regular utility classes and backing objects that may not be models? Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

rake migrate VERSION=0 doesn''t appear to execute
All, I''ve decided to jump into Migrations before I get too far along on the DB side of things. I already have some tables built, and I went ahead and built the migration that would have created them from scratch, and I made sure that there was a self.down section to drop them. I wanted to verify that I could roll back so I figured I would use rake to drop these pre-existing tables

HABTM join table has an "ID" column - is this an issue?
All, I''m building model objects for existing tables that I cannot modify. In AWDWR, Dave says "Note that our join table has no id column...The second reason for not including an id column in the join table is that AR automatically includes all columns from the join tables when accessing rows using it. If the join table included a column called id, its id would overwrite the id

ADVICE: Generating unique identifiers for later DB insertion
All, I have an ActiveRecord object that I need to be able to uniquely identify _before_ I actually save the object (I may not end up saving the object based on conditions). This is because I want to use the ID in another context (a file name in the filesystem). Depending on conditions, I may or may not need to do a lot of stuff between the time that I generate the object ID and actually

[OT] Apache rewrite stuff...
Hi all, a little off topic, but was wondering what the best way is to re-write incoming requests so that they all end up at the same domain. For example, if I had: my_domain.net my_domain.com my_domain.org Whats the best way to map/redirect all of these to www.my_domain.com ? I know its possible, just not sure what to add for rules/virtual hosts in my apache config. Thanks for the help! -Nick

What is has_many :through really buying you over HABTM?
So having just learned how to do has_many :through as opposed to HABTM, and then, being concerned that I wouldn''t get it to work, I started thinking about these two approaches. It seems to me that the _only_ problem that the HM:T (has_many :through) approach solves that HABTM doesn''t is the issue of the potential collision of id columns between your join table and one of

Tracking page hits
Hello all, I am developing an online store and would like to keep track of how many times each product was viewed. While I can keep track of page hits using something like webalizer, this won''t really work (I don''t think) as the pages are not going to be static. Has anyone else implemented this and if so could you please point me in the right direction. A potential solution

Verifying some understanding about manipulating DB data in before/after callbacks in RSpec
We had an after(:each) callback that looked like this: PurchaseOrder.find(:all).each {|po| DraftInvoice.find_all_by_po_number(po.po_number).each {|di| di.destroy}} which we were hoping would reset some purchase order data in a certain way. However, because we have "self.use_transactional_fixtures = true" set in test_helper.rb, this code was never getting committed. So, I just

Security considerations with displaying uploaded HTML
I have an application where I am allowing users to upload (or refer the app. to) arbritrary HTML that I am (currently) displaying in an IFRAME on a page. The users will be authenticated so it''s not open to the entire universe. I was always uneasy with this, but after reading the security chapter of AWDWR, I am even more concerned. What kinds of applications do people have out there

AJAX/CSS issue (more UI focused)
All, This isn''t strictly a problem or issue with RoR but I wondered if someone might have some insight. I have a DIV on a page which I am using to "preview" the contents of a URL provided by the user. Basically, when the user clicks on a link, I do an AJAX call to an action which uses Net::HTTP to request the URL in question and then update the DIVs innerHTML attribute

Form validation - keepin correct fields displayed on refresh
All, I''m finally doing my first real form in Rails - the model object that I''m entering information for has 8 validations so far. If I type in good values for all the fields but one, I get the pretty validation, and the nice field highlighting, but all of the fields are cleared, forcing me to retype all of that info. That is a big drag. Is there a standard way to get the
