As I, like many people, are coming to ruby in the rails era, I''m curious about how Ruby Web Dev was done prior to rails. Any veterans want to share their insights? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hiall, I just tried out InstantRails version 1.3a. After a virgin install and filling the fresh mysql db with my app schema, I tried runningthe app with webrick, only to see the infamous "Lost connection to mysql server" for every action. What is it that I''m doing wrong? I also have mysql 5 installed on my machine, but the service is stopped while experimenting with

Hello, Rails provide counter cache field for associations, I want a similar cache for totaling up values (say account_balance = sum_of_deposits - sum_of_withdrawals). I was wondering if rails, already has another surprise in store for me, or is there any plug-in or how-to for doing these kind of things. Thanks. -- Surendra Singhi http://ssinghi.kreeti.com, http://www.kreeti.com Read the

Hello, I have created a ticket for an enhancement of the autocompleter to show the options immediately when the field gets focus. Right now at least one character must be typed for autocomplete to kick in. http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/5435 I have also made some code changes directly in the script Event.observe(this.element, "blur", this.onBlur.bindAsEventListener(this));

Hiall, If I have say 10 tables that i would like to wrap up in 1 view to manipulate data inside these tables, do I then need 10 model.rb files for all 10 tables plus 1 for the view, or do I just need 1 model.rb file for the view ? cheers Martin

Hello all, Yet another "don''t reinvent the wheel" n00b question: Is there an ''official'' page hit counter plugin/code snippet/whatever? I would need something like this: - It is possibility to set a constant timespan (say 5 hours). - On every page hit, save away @request.remote_ip and Time.new - The counter gets incremented only if the same IP was here

Hiall, Unfortunately I just can''t find out how to setup a default selected value when using collection_select. My call is like so: <%= collection_select(:consultant, :lastname, @consultants, :id, :lastname, { :selected => @current_consultant.id } ) %> which is not working, I debugged so far that I know that @current_consultant.id contains the correct value. Any tips? cheers

Basically, on thing that annoys me to no end is that I am constantly having to add things to my model that could just be reflected out by the active record. I use PortGres exclusivly, and I know that there are ways to ask the database things like, "what is the primary key" "what relation does this foreign key belong to" etc... So what I am about to go and write myself is a

Hiall, Is it possible to organize my model files below app/models into subfolders? E.g. I would like to put admin related models into their own subfolder. This kind of structuring works for controllers and views (scaffolding creates the right subfolder-model mappings), but app/models always stays flat. I''d really like to be able to group my code into logical, well packages :-) Yes, I

Hi, Any idea why image_tag doesn''t work within an email template? I''m trying to generate the URL for an image and I''m getting the following error. undefined method `request'' for #<Mailer:0x6a719e0> I''ve been able to use link_to but no luck with image_tag. I''ve seen a similar post to this in the list but no one has posted a response.

Maybe I''m missing the point? Lets take for example albums of pictures. If I have a scaffold for each, and I''m showing an album, what if I want to list all of the pictures that are in the album? Surely, I''d want to call the List action in the picture controller. render_component would do this perfectly. But we''re told not to use render_component. So

Hiall, Call me stupid if you like .,) but it seems i can''t figure out how to get a named link using a combination of link_to and image_tag. What I need is basically a link displaying a name along with some image to indicate status (open,working,finished). I found no combination of link_to and image_tag that accepts a name, this seems to be solely used for making whole images into links

I created a simple test to try and pinpoint my problem but nothing seems clear to me. I created a Thing model with fields { id (INT), date (DATE) } now when I try to create a new "thing" the date does not get stored, and no errors are reported. @myNewThing = Thing.new(:date => "2006-08-07") @myNewThing.save this results in a new record with a date of

Hi Is anyone aware of any Document Management System in Rails. Googling didn''t help me find any Rails based solution. The DMS I need, need to have the following feature apart form the usual ones. 1. Version control of documents. 2. Tracking version control for each group of users independently from the other group . These groups may share the same document name but may have different

Hiall, I''m wondering what''s common practice when dealing with money values stored in databases. I like the idea of storing all the values as integers, i.e. all the values in eurocents not euros. Then I need to multiply all values the users enter by 100 before storing them in the database. Now the question is, what''s the most efficient and dryest way to do this?

Hiall, I want to make an image_tag from within a controller in order to be able to present a link (with a status image) in a view. Here is my controller method (in file webca_controller.rb, hence WebcaController) def untouched_status_image_tag image_tag("open", { :alt => "Offen", :title => "Offen", :size => "12x12", :class =>
