Hi, I have some problems with an application where I''m using custom accessors to do currency conversions. In my model, I have a price attribute in the database that stores the value in cents, to avoid future problems with float arithmetic and round. But at the views, I would like to show the price in euros, with decimal for the cents. So I defined a new attribute called price_in_euros,

hi there. Here is the simple scenario: My active record connects to a table that contains an integer field. My form contains a text box that allows me to enter a value to get updated to the integer field. If anything gets entered that is anything other than a POSITIVE INTEGER, I want to display an error.

Hi all, I need a little help with flow control in R. What I'd like to do is to advance a for loop by changing its counter. However, what seems obvious to me does not yield the proper results. An example of my problem is for (i in seq(1, some_number, some_increment)){ <some stuff> if (some_condition == T) i <- i + 2; #want to advance the loop by 2 } Whenever the counter goes

Hi all - To avoid floating point issues, I''ve decided to store monetary values in cents in the database. However, the user will enter these in dollars and cents. Two questions: 1) How do I do the validation for the currency format? It looks like ActiveRecord truncates the cents since it thinks the field type is a Fixnum. Am I forced to do validation in the controller? 2) Where

It seems that the validations for: greater_than greater_than_or_equal_to less_than less_than_or_equal_to equal_to odd even Simply do not work (Rails 2.0.2).

To make things worse mysql has a wait_timeout variable that would basically kill off these connections for me, but there is a bug and I can not change the value of it. I have tried at least 10 different

Is there a way to use validates_numericality_of and still allow null values? I have a model with some optional values that can be nil, but if they''re present, they must be numbers. Will I need to construct a custom valiation for this, or is there some method built in? Seems like it would be a common enough need. Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
