Hello again, It''s possible to use before_filter in the application_controller, and exclude for some methods from other controllers ? i have a before_filter in application_controller that checks if the user is logged, if the time hasn''t expired, ... and I want to exclude some methods of this check, like the login.

By writing the except as attached, that works, but then everyone has access to all "new" methods, which I don''t really want. Can someone help me with how to properly construct this to limit non-logged

I want to put a before_filter in application.rb, as follows: before_filter :do_something, :except_controller => [:admin] def do_something(options) options.stringify_keys! unless options[:except_controller].include?(controller_name) # do something useful end end Where I''m blocking is on how to get the ''options'' data in the do_something method.

Can someone confirm that the first request after this, i.e. the page I redirect to, doesn''t/isn''t supposed to clear the flash? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/flash%2C-before_filter-and-redirect_to-t1367103.html#a3665933 Sent from the RubyOnRails Users forum at Nabble.com.

All, I''ve upgraded to 2.0.2, and I can''t get my login screen (the first POST request in the application) to work. When I post this form, I see the "InvalidAuthenticityToken" error.

All, Thanks for any help in advance. I have what I think is a very straightforward partial template and I can''t figure out why a text_field call within it doesn''t work.

All, I want to run automated unit tests as part of my build. I am building to my test environment.

All, I''ve run into a snag. I need to handle the display of elements on my page and I want to use my Javascript event handlers on page load. However, my BODY tag is trapped in my generic layout.

All, I''m finally doing my first real form in Rails - the model object that I''m entering information for has 8 validations so far. If I type in good values for all the fields but one, I get the pretty validation, and the nice field highlighting, but all of the fields are cleared, forcing me to retype all of that info. That is a big drag. Is there a standard way to get the
