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.

I know its possible, just not sure what to add for rules/virtual hosts in my apache config. Thanks for the help! -Nick

Hi, I''m attempting to add a route via a plugin. I attempted to add the following to my init.rb: myroute = ActionController::Routing::Routes.connect "boo2", :controller=>''plugin'', :action=>''index'' puts "path=#{myroute.path}" myroute.options.keys.each do |k| puts "#{k}=#{myroute.options[k]}" end The newly

Hi, Has anyone gotten the "roughcuts" of the Ruby and Rails cookbooks? If you have the Pragmattic Rails Cookbook is the O''Reilly worth it? Also can you download PDF''s of their "roughcuts". The website is kind of vague, it just mentions online access (whatever that means). Thanks in advance.

Hello, I''m trying to figure out how I could implement fragment caching that expires every x amount of time. I thought of writing a runner script that would expire the cache and set it as a cron job, but that doesn''t really work because runner scripts act on models and not controllers. Does anybody have any ideas? Regards, -carl
