similar to: Setting cookie value in test

hello, I am trying to implement a "remember be" box for logins, however I cant seem to get it to work. I have tried the following 2 methods but neither seem to work. When i check the expiry time in firefox it always says "end of session". What is the proper way to handle this so the session cookie "_session_id" doesnt expire for a year? I tried

We''re going to have problems keeping cookies across domains. We want people to shop in one domain (e.g. "booksareus.com") and then checkout on the same server securely under a different domain (e.g. "greatbooks.com"). When we make the jump to the secure domain (the checkout link) can we submit the user''s session ID along with it and have it

Hello can anyone tell me how to test cookies using rspec? specifically, I''d like to be able to set a cookie before a get/post request and also to test the cookies which have been set by a get/post request I know I can use cookies[:name] = ''value'' to set a cookie but how would I set expiry information on such a cookie? when i try to pass a hash {:value =>

I am new to Ruby on Rails in general and apologize if this question is trivial and/or has been asked before ( my searches did not turn up any threads ). I am using the cookies function from actionpack which I have located in my vendor/rails/actionpack directory. Using: cookies[:username] and cookies[:password] from within a controller file works just fine, I am able to set and read

Hi, I currently have a site that lets people enter info and submit it to the database. But the problem is the it lets people enter data in their language (portuguese and spanish) and all the special characters for those languages get replaced by symbols. Any idea how would I fix that? Thanks a lot. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m having a problem with sessions since upgrading to EdgeRails. Against certain recomendations, I''m storing the current user''s model object in the session. This worked fine in 1.0 and earlier, but now I am noticing that any time I reference the associated objects for an object stored in the session, the associated objects get copied into the session! For example,

Hi, I noticed that there is a cookie set by my rails scaffold that contains a 32 character hash code in it, but when I tried to change its value using Cookies[:_session_id], nothing happened, it stays the same! How am I supposed to change the session_id? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi folks, For a project I''m working on, I need to set an HTTP header BEFORE the Set-Cookie header is sent. Basically, I need to send along our compact privacy policy before the cookie is set. I''ve tried using: @headers[''P3P''] = "P3P: blah blah blah..." ...but the problem is that no matter what I do, the Set-Cookie header is sent first, and the P3P

Hopefully someone can give me some advice on how to approach this problem... I''m getting ready to start a large new project where several different organizations would be working with a lot of tables. Each table would have an organization_id field to signify which organization owns that record. Organizations would only be able to view/edit records they own. Potentially thousands of

I''ve been looking around for how to store the session ID in a cookie. The "Agile Web Development with Rails" books seems to indicate that this is done by default with Rails. But I don''t see a cookie being set in my browser. (yeah, they''re enabled) I poked through the RForum code to find something referencing "cookies" but nothing came up. Does

Hi, I''ve been trying to get this to work all night. I''ve made some progress by reading other posts, but I''m stuck now and can''t figure out what I am doing wrong. I have two tables: application_users and user_types. In my application_users table I have a field named "user_type_id". At first, I thought if I set up the foreign key with the correct

Hi ! I'm getting an uncaught exception requiring the Scriptaculous libraries when everything says XHTML 1.0 Strict: class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base before_filter :set_content_type protected def set_content_type response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/xhtml+xml; charset=ISO-8859-1' end end <?xml version="1.0"

Hello, I am fairly new to RoR and I have a question I hope can be solved elegantly (so many things are, so why not this one too?). I have a working solution, but I want to be sure I am doing things the "rails way" (having come from PHP). You could say I am looking for a little validation (no flames please). I have a table of units like so: CREATE TABLE `units` ( `id`

Hi all, I am mocking the following Rails view (inside a partial): <%= render :partial => "forums/forum", :collection => forum_category.forums.readable_by(current_user? ? current_user : nil) %> My spec fails with the following message: 1) ActionView::TemplateError in ''forum_categories/index (anonymous user) should only render forums accessible to anonymous

Hi all ! InPlaceEditor refreshes only the element that was updated. Is there any way to make it update tons of other stuff ? I have a table where changing a value in it causes changes in most other cells (weight to percentage to money).

Ruby Forum Search did not work, and I did not find any postings about http://laszlo-plugin.rubyforge.org/. OpenLaszlo is a framework handling the GUI part, or the V in MVC. See http://www.laszlosystems.com/lps/laszlo-in-ten-minutes/ for info about Laszlo itself. My question is, does anybody have experience with this framework, especially combined with Rails? Or, could I get some of the best

Hi all, Yesterday, I had some problems reading JPG files in my tests. Turns out the problem was that Windows Ruby doesn't set it's Tempfile to work in binary mode. Since I deploy on Linux, that has never been a big problem, but now I'm working on some software that works with binary files exclusively. Anyway, I am making this fix available as a Rails plugin. The details can be
