Hi, I want to parse the html doc using ruby. I tried using reXML but failed to load html doc as it is not in well formed structure. Can you please suggest me a good parser which I can use to parse HTML page using Ruby? Thanks, Karika. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

All, At the top of my controller, I have: require ''rubygems'' require_gem ''rubyful_soup'' The rubyful_soup gem has been successfully installed. However, when I go to instantiate a class from it, using parser = BeautifulSoup.new(html) I get uninitialized constant BeautifulSoup Is there something else I need to do to see the symbols in the Rubyful Soup gem?

I''m having trouble succesfully getting access to the ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper.strip_tags method from one of my controllers. If I try to call it directly using ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper.strip_tags I get undefined method `strip_tags'' for ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper:Module What is the preferred way to make ActionView helpers available to a descendant of

The following two posts (at the bottom) were posted to engine- users@lists.rails-engines.org and suggests further issues with 1.1.4 I''m forwarding it here for two reasons: 1. Just a heads-up that 1.1.4 breaks engines that are customised. login/user_engine are probably almost as widely deployed as Typo, and if you''ve done any controller-level customisation, 1.1.4 appears to

All, Rails 1.1.2 Win XP Pro Rubyful Soup 1.0.4 htmltools 1.0.9 I am terribly confused as to what pulling in a gem does with respect to how many modules get loaded at runtime. I am using two gems in my app, Rubyful Soup and htmltools. RubyfulSoup requires one module from the htmltools gem (html/sgml-parser). My app requires the RubyfulSoup gem. When I started my app, something was causing

Hi, I want to access TextHelper and UrlHelper methods in my model so how i am able to access it ? I was included following helper in my model but still it is not working? also for accessing these helper method w need to give external reference? E.g. class Xyz include ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper Also

I''m starting to use RubyfulSoup (http://www.crummy.com/software/ RubyfulSoup/), but my Rails app already uses acts_as_taggable. RubyfulSoup has a Tag class. In order to get the Tag << ActiveRecord::Base and this Tag to co-exist, I had to rename the RubyfulSoup class to TagSoup. This seems to work so far. This is almost certainly not the best way to do it, but until I run

Hi there, i have a rails application which use the active_rbac engine for user and access control. How can I use the original login, etc. forms which were provided with the engine as partials in my application? I''ve tried all of the below mentioned approaches and it seems so that I cannot reach the templates provided under the [RAILS_HOME]/vendor/plugins/active_rbac/app/views directory.

I''ve recently started playing with InstantRails 1.0 and am now wanting to experiment with the Login and active RBAC engines but having trouble getting them to install. I''ve checked the following but can''t find any info on how to get it to work. http://rails-engines.org/wiki/pages/Engines+plugin I''ve also tried the following:

*Sorry for the first mail without subject* Hello, I try to use the active_rbac plugin (0.3.1) with Rails 1.1.2 but can''t succeed for the moment. Here is what I did : 1 - install Engines Plugin => OK. ''rake engines:info'' gives me "1.1.1" as the engines plugin version. 2 - install Active_rbac plugin => OK. Files are copied in vendor/plugins/active_rbac

Hi I''ve contributed a patch which fixes an incorrect example in the documentation for auto_link in ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper. The example uses truncate in the old style of tuncate(text, length) which no longer works, so I''ve patched it to use the new tuncate(text, :length => n) style.

I want to test that the JSON response from a create action is sanitized properly, but rspec or webrat appears to be parsing the output into proper HTML chars instead of escaped characters. I have verified that it escapes properly in the regular browser json response. The relevant RSpec test code is: include ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper it

Hi Guys, I am trying to use Rubyful-soup for a simple webpage modification project. The issue is that when I try to display the modified html (generated by @soup.to_s) using RJS, an error pops up saying ''malformed utf-8 character''. I can fix this by using @soup.to_s.toutf8 but that causes some of the characters in the document to be messed up (ie ''&nbsp becomes

Hi How do I publish a plugin so I can download it via ./script/plugin. I''ve put my plugin (ActiveRBAC) on http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/ pages/Plugins but seemingly ./script/plugin discover does not find it :/ Even if I do ./script/plugin source \ https://activerbac.turingstudio.com/source/active_rbac/trunk/ active_rbac it does not appear on ./script/plugin list.

Hi there, I need to: 1. STORE a text of the below format in a (MySQL) database (using a ''textarea''), and then 2. RETRIEVE & DISPLAY it in exactly the same format (meaning: keeping all paragraphs/line breaks). The intended text format looks like this: *** Blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah blah blahblah blah, blah blahblah. <- NEW

I have a model that deals with HTML and I want to use the text_helper.sanitize method to strip the HTML of Javascript. However, it doesn''t appear that I can get easy access to the text_helper methods from within a model. Anyone have any suggestions for how to do this? In general, I think that there are some ActionView helpers which are generic enough to want to use in a model class.

I have a small intranet app with only 20 or so users. I''m currently using lighttpd w/ssl for production and mongrel for dev. I don''t think Mongrel supports ssl, but what is the easiest front-end to put in front of it? Pound? Thanks Greg -- Greg Freemyer The Norcross Group Forensics for the 21st Century

All, I have a small Intranet app I''m trying to get ready for remote access. (I only have 15 or so users for now and I don''t plan to be adding very many more.). I have installed the login engine and it seems to be working as advertized. (Great job!) For my needs I don''t want random people to be able to register and get access to my app, but I will need to register
