i have a 2 step form which contains 1 file_column field. The second form is just "This is how your post will look" kind of form and the user can click Edit (to take them back to form1) or Submit. If the user clicks edit it takes them back to the first form with fields populated. I have it working with all text fields, I just dont know how to do this with file_column field (showing the

is there a way using the file_column plugin to enforce a certain content type based on regex (i.ie, /^image/) and/or filesize (150k) ? thanks adam

is it possible to store a field of type file_column in the session? Rails crashes on me every time i try to do something like the following: @session[:newpost] = @params[:post] however if i assign each field of @params[:post[ except for @params[:post]["image"] i have no problems. Is there something that should be done to allow the file in the session? thanks adam

Does anybody have any issues with the AJAX code inside rails? Whenever i use any sites i have built, or even external sites (such as basecamphq) my internal security device blocks access to the Ajax piece with a 400 Bad Request ( i scoured the net for other ajax examples and no isses anywhere else). I think there is something in the AJAX code of rails that is not implemented correctly. Has

how do i find the available methods available to my objects in file_column ? I noticed that i can do @post.image_relative_path for my @post object to retreive the relative path. What are all the other options available to my objects thru file_column ? thanks adam

Ajax.InPlaceEditor supports a loadTextURL option. If you look at the InPlaceEditor page (http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/Ajax.InPlaceEditor) you''ll see an excellent example in Rails of how you might use that option textilize in place edited stuff. Unfortunately, the example doesn''t use the nifty Rails in_place_editor method because

I''m using Ajax to create a list of items. Once these items have been created the user can edit in place and delete them. I''ve got the ajax working for delete and removing the element from the page, but the in_place_editor_field doesn''t seem to like being in a for loop. I''ve got in_place_editor working for single items, but what''s the syntax

I can''t seem to get :script to set the evalScripts option in the Ajax.InPlaceEditor. No matter what combination of options I try it never shows up. E.g. : <%= in_place_editor ''url_1'', :url => { :controller => ''url'', :action => ''set_url'', :id => 1 }, :cols => 45,

Hi there, I''ve been trying incorporate the in_place_editor, but have had no luck so far. I read the Ajax.In Place editor wiki on script.aculos.us which was informing, but still left me wondering about a few things. Here''s what I''m trying to do. A user has a profile page which lists their name, age, homepage, etc... There is no form on this page... it''s just

Hi, Sebastian Kanthak of the file_column-Plugin wrote once: "is the photo object inside a local variable or an instance variable (e.g. photo or @photo)? url_for_file_column only works with instance variables, like all other active record form helpers. Could this be the problem?" So I''m using file_column in a partial, e.g. <%= render (:partial => "product",

I''m working on a photo gallery and I''m using File_column to handle the uploads of the files and create my thumbnails, but does anyone here have any idea how to have a watermark (opaque text maybe) placed over one of the versions? Any ideas on how to go about this would be great. Even if it''s just straight RMagick code, that would be fine too. Thanks in advance for the

I''ve got a bog-standard view which displays textilized data. In the same view, I have an in_place_editor which uses load_text_url to bring in non-textilized data when editing. Now, if I have html tags in the data loaded from load_text_url, they appear to go missing. I can see the tags in the output from my controller method using the console, but the tags are not shown in the

Hi everyone, I have a photo site that I''m making and I''m using file_column to handle the auto-generation of several "version" of each photo: essentially thumbs and fuller-sized version. The full sized versions retain the original''s proportions, whereas the thumbs are all 4:3. This means most of the thumbs are cropping the original. This all works great, but I

I''ve been going through Recipe 1 of the "Rails Recipes" book by Chad Fowler. In-place editing is working just fine but I''ve noticed that the textboxes now won''t let me introduce letters with accents, as in "caf?". Is there some way to work around this problem? I guess I could go into the javascript to find that particular input validation but I wanted

I have a simple question, but can''t seem to figure this out. I added an in place editor field and didn''t like how it didn''t use the save method. It uses the update_attribute method which does not run validation, etc. So I just added the method in my controller myself: def set_event_url begin @event = Event.find params[:id] @event.url =

Hello, I''m a newbie to Ruby on Rails and like many others, I have been working through the depot application in the Agile Web Development book.

Hi, How can one unload a file in Ruby on Rails? It?s where the user must select a file on the desktop PC and upload it via the web browser.

I''m working on an app right now that uses http://www.kanthak.net/opensource/file_column/index.html Sebastian Kanthak''s file_column plugin for file uploads. The usual directory structure it saves to is: model/attr/id/filename For my current project, I''d like to separate uploads by account so that it''s easier to monitor an account''s resource usage.
