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));

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).

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

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

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

I created a simple test to try and pinpoint my problem but nothing seems clear to me.

Hi, I am new to ruby and to rails, but I like what I see so far. I have been working on a web app in java (servlets and JSPs) that, based on a request from the user, kicks off a thread in the background to perform a task (puts messages in an MQSeries queue). The thread object is stored in the session and I then allow the user to control the task from the browser(like stop it). Is the same
