Autocompleter enhancement feature request
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));

Cache Magic field for totaling
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.

Page hit counter?
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

RJS - page object in helpers?
Hello,
I am using RJS and Edge Rails and I was wondering if the page object should
be available in helpers also.
For example if I have a helper function
def update_flash_messages
page.replace_html ''flash_messages'', (show_flash_messages :textilize => true)
page.visual_effect ''flash_messages'', :appear
end
and then in my RJS files I call

Creatulator: Before I go and make it myself, does this exist...
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

Why does no one like render_component?
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

mysql Date field not getting set correctly
I created a simple test to try and pinpoint my problem but nothing seems
clear to me.

no errors are reported.

Hello,
I need to put an AJAX, form such that it is inside a table, and spans across
few rows.
But, what I am noticing is that, while submitting the form, the data in the

If I move the form outside the table or inside a cell, things work OK, but not

Models, Helpers, Modules, etc.
Hello,
I am learning rails and ruby and I have some questions about how should I go
about doing certain things.
[1]Many of my models have some functionality which is common, and instead of
duplicating it across models, I want to store it in a single file, and then
import the file into the models. Should I do this using modules, and then store
them in the `lib'' directory? What is the
