I''ve just about finished up work on a plugin similar to acts_as_taggable, but for comments instead which would allow you to attach comments (possibly even a threaded discussion if conbined with acts_as_tree) to any object. Is there anyone that would be interested in it? I don''t want to go throug the trouble of finding some way to distribute it unless I know that there is a

Hi, I seem to remember seeing the equivalent of saving only if all attributes are different. I can''t seem to find that now in the API or the agile book. I''m using the acts_as_versioned and only want to save if the input is different. Thanks, Steve http://www.smarkets.net -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi Rails List, I need some beta testers for my new site: http://www.smarkets.net. This list is literally the first group to see it, so be gentle. Smarkets is a prediction market for Amazon products. It takes Amazon products and turns them into a stock. The price of these "stocks" move based on the movement of its Amazon sales rank. If the sales rank goes up 10%, the price of the stock

Hi list, I have a list of tags. I want to be able to click on a tag and have that tag name populate an input field. I think delicious used to allow you to click on existing links to tag your bookmark similar to this (moving instead to auto_complete). My guess is the code looks something like this.... <form> <input type="text" name="all" id="discover"

Hi, I''ve started getting an error I can''t debug. The error doesn''t generate anything in my development log. A breakpoint set right at the beggining of the controller method does not get triggered. It happens on a form submission. I can make changes to the object model from with the console, but not on this form submission. I thought maybe it was routing, because I have

A couple of years ago I was building an online multiplayer game doing the frontend in Flash MX 2004 and using Colin Moock''s Unity server (http://moock.org/unity/) for the backend. This was to be along the lines of JungleWar and the Hidden and Dangerous mini games for those whom remember these: http://moock.org/unity/showcase/screenshots/hiddenanddangerous.gif

I am using a serialized attribute in one of my models The serialized data is in the form of an array. I want to have a text_tag for each element contained in my serialized attribute. How would I construct the text_tag? My model name is ''questions''. The serialized attribute is "answers" So I might have: <% form tag %> <% text_tag ''question'',

Quick question to see how I might re-sort an Activerecord data set. Let''s say I have this table: tablename: testscores | id | student | score | avg_for_year 1, steve, 85, 82 2, tom, 84, 92, 3, jim, 92, 95 In my controller, I have something like: t= Testscores.find(:all, :order => "score DESC", :limit => 2) ...where it would return the records for Jim and Steve.... My

Hi list, I''ve got some counter_caches in a model. When these get incremented - say on a page view - my updated_on column also gets updated. How can I conditionally not update updated_on if just these counter_cache columns change? The problem with that is that I am using acts_as_versioned which clones the record each time updated_on changes. I am successfully ignoring the counter_cache

I''d been ignoring this error message in my log for a while: ActionController::RoutingError (Recognition failed for "/robots.txt"): I had never touched robots.txt. So I decided to make it a proper robots.txtfile I found this great article... http://www.ilovejackdaniels.com/seo/robots-txt-file/ ...where Dave explains the ins and outs of the file. Before I changed mine, I

Hi, I need a fresh set of eyes to look at this bit of controller code and tell me why I might be getting an error message: lookup = Profit.find(:all, :conditions => [ "user_id = ? AND product_id = ?", uid, pid]) unless lookup.empty? if (lookup.updated_on > 360.minutes.ago) return end end If lookup is empty, then I

Hi, I''ve got a live_search field in a partial that is on several different pages. On all pages, except 1, it works fine. On the page it doesn''t work on, it seems it never executes it action. Here''s my observe_field code inside the partial: <h1><label for="searchtext">Live Search:</label></h1> <%= text_field_tag :searchtext

Hi list, My tag_question_user join table is not currently a full-blown model. It doesn''t have a primary key - just tag_id, question_id, and user_id. I now want to add a primary key to this model (because I want to add a "description" column as well so users can describe the tag. I''m not sure how to add this using migrations. Here is what I have: class AddNotesToTags

Hi All, Rails newbie here trying to set up acts_as_versioned according to Chapter 14 in the Rails Recipies book. I''ve taken the following steps (nearly verbatim) as mentioned by the book: - created the target model "Post" - added the "acts_as_versioned" label to the model file - generated a migration file - added the table creation code and the command

If Tuscon has some rail users, I know there must be some other Austin railers out there. Have I missed some meetings that I didn''t know about?

In production mode, I keep getting this error the 2nd time it loads a page with a serialized attribute: ActiveRecord::SerializationTypeMismatch (answers_container was supposed to be a Array, but was a NilClass): /vendor/rails/activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb:1964:in `unserialize_attribute'' In development, it works fine. In fact, if I set to false config.cache_classes in

Hi, I''m completely new to all of this. Not even certain this is an appropriate forum for an installation question. I''m just about to plunk down some money to get a virtual server. In looking over the list of isp''s elsewhere on this site, goDaddy isn''t mentioned - probably because they don''t offer rails as a standard distribution. There are some

Ok, no one has said it yet so I will. http://37signals.com/svn/archives2/bezos_expeditions_invests_in_37signals.php?102#comments How is this going to affect Rails? Or is it? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
