Hello, (Apologies for length, wanted to get all the relevant detail in that I know of). I've been having a lot of trouble with some code for an inventory analysis problem I was doing, and finally came to the conclusion that it appears that choose() is returning incorrect values. Specifically: ------------- Browse[1]> nn [1] 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 3

Hi all, I just begun with RoR and going through the Agile development w Rails depot example ATM. I did everything according to the book (i believe), and after 3 hours of googling, reading docs, making sure i did everything correctly i can not make the validate_presence_of() to work - at least not as it looks in the book. My Product model looks like: class Product < ActiveRecord::Base

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

Hello all, I have a screen scraping application (go to a lots of sites, extract 10k stuff, integrate the results, put them to DB etc). Now i want to use a Rails application as a frontend to this: The user can push a button which triggers the screen scraping app and view the results (preferably asynchronously, but that does not really matter right now). Questions: - Should the screen scraping app

Hello, As a rails newbie, i have stumbled upon some tutorials promoting migratons. I have thought, wow, cool and started using them right away. However, now that i am reading the RoR list on a daily basis, i have seen also mails ranging from ''migrations are not always the best'' to ''migrations are evil'' and even ''i would not use migrations even

Hello all, Maybe the $subj is a little bit weird (i.e. apples vs oranges) but it is a situation i am facing at the moment: We are developing a small web site which will be mostly a CMS (more or less) and my colleagues is arguing for drupal, and i am for RoR. Maybe i can formulate the question in a different way: when to use a CMS (not necessarily drupal but e.g. Radiant CMS) and when to use Ruby

Hey all, maybe I am missing the obvious again, but I can not submit the form on buy.com: require ''rubygems'' require ''mechanize'' agent = WWW::Mechanize.new agent.user_agent_alias = ''Mac Safari'' page = agent.get("http://www.buy.com") search_form = page.forms.with.name("searchbox").first p search_form.buttons the last

Hello all, I am trying to click image maps ("area" nodes), and while Perl''s mechanize treats "a", "area", "frame", "iframe" and "meta" tags as links, it seems to me that Ruby''s Mechanize thinks only "a" tags can be links (at least my little experiment, namely: page.links.each {|link| puts link.node.name}

Hello all, If I run this script, and observe the output, the results are not there at all (try to do the same in the browser). Any suggestions? require ''rubygems'' require ''mechanize'' agent = WWW::Mechanize.new agent.user_agent_alias = ''Mac Safari'' page =

Hi all, I have already evangelized my management to use Rails instead of a Java framework for a newly starting projects - they are OK with Ruby, Rails, seems i won the ''will it scale?'' round too, however there is one final round: performance. These guys are really hooked on numbers. (I know, i know, i have been reading DHH''s thoughts on this topic (in short: who

Hello my friends Today at FISL (International Forum of Free Software), I''ve had the opportunity to watch a Turbogears presentation. The framework, itself is really weak in comparison to rails, but... When the guy who was making the presentation show the NEW 0.9 TurboGears Toolbox I''ve though: - Isn''t something like that in Rails? Well, after a little googleing

Good afternoon, I''ve two quick questions for the Ruby/Rails community. 1) Do you use Linux for Ruby or Rails development? 2) If you use Linux, which distro do you normally use to develop? Thank you for your input. :-) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi All, I have some partials that need to be rendered a bit differently depending on the context. To make matters worse, sometimes these partials are including other partials, that I''d like to control from the main template. These partials are templates that look similar in different contexts, but have different controls depending on where they''re being rendered. I

Let''s say I have a "main" controller/view and a "sub" controller/view. If I have defined a partial in "main" for the site header (_site_header.rhtml) can I share it with "sub" or does "sub" have to duplicate it, use a symbolic link to the file, or convert the cool partial into an ugly helper?

Can I call partials from html files in public? Is this wise? I''ve got a bunch of html files and I''d like to let them have access to pieces of Rails, but I''d like to manage them through Contribute or some such. I *could* wiki them up, but that seems like a lot of work for pages that don''t get updated that often (yearly or so). Thanks in advance! - Dave --

(Just getting started w rails, web app dev for a long time...) I have some partials that are common across multiple controllers. They''re not universal, so they don''t belong to be part of these controllers'' layouts. It appears that I can put them at the root of /views/, and render them using a relative path, like so: <%= render :partial => "./footer"

Hi I am using a ''master'' layout in my project by putting "layout ''main''" in my application controller so that the same layout is applied to every controller and I would like to use partials in the layout file (obeying DRY, of course!) but if I render a partial in the layout then whenever the layout is rendered by a controller the layout looks for
