Folks, I am linking from page A to page B, and back again. When I go from A -> B, the B_controller.rb runs fine, and the page renders properly. But, when I go from B -> A, the A_controller.rb doesn''t run again, so the array (@A) is nil (which causes a problem). Should the controller run each time the page is accessed? Any ideas?

Hi On every list request i render an item partial through a collection of items. the item table has 3 columns namely name,anotherName and id. the item partial looks like <%@item=item%> <%= error_messages_for(:item) %> <tr id="<%=item.id%>"> <% for column in Item.content_columns %> <td><%=h item.send(column.name) %></td> <%

I am trying so learn how to do custom validations. The validation works as expected, but I can''t get "error_messages_for" to display. How is the name of the object supposed to be formated?

I would appreciate any and all input. The Agile book is not useful in this context. :o( As near as I can tell, it doesn''t work at all. I would expect that clicking on the [Next Question] button in the browser would fire the next_question method in the current controller. Instead, it (apparently) does nothing. The tag in question <%= submit_tag ''Next

With the help of several heroes here yesterday I beat my way into a working solution to adding comments to one or more models in my application using acts_as_comentable. Great plugin, but my implementation is lame. I need enlightenment. I have users who log in. For several views I want to let them add comments. Enter act_as_commentable which does just this -- it''s polymorphic, so you

Hello all, I am pretty much new here, trying to move to RoR from .net world. I will appreciate if anyone clarifies this for me.

I''ve run into what I think is a browser bug related to using remote_forms pushed in an RJS update. In my controller, I have an action that creates a new model and returns a form for one of its children: def create_party party = Party.create render :update do |page| page.insert_html :top, ''party-list'', :partial => ''party_header'',
