I have got two forms, the first is a textarea plus a link that activates some javascript to change the form, the second activates some javascript on the onchange event which changes it into a textarea form. This works in Firefox, but not in Safari. Also, I need the value which is selected. I''ve found an example that gives the parameter to the javascript, like this: <input

In testing my application on different browsers, I''ve noticed a few differences:- a password_field :size=>20 is smaller than a text_field :size=>20 on Internet Explorer. They are the same on Firefox and Safari. makes my login box look silly. the same can be seen on the login screen for this forum. the password box is a little shorter on IE6. more annoying however is I have

I have an input field with an id which has a value. The web_steps.rb method does not find the value. Is this the right step to use to check an input field? It works fine for a text_area but not an input. Scenario steps (tried both ways): Then the "travel_card_number_gate" field should contain "5" Then the "#travel_card_number_gate" field should contain "5"

Basically, I have a textarea which has a little icon next to it which will fire off a reset of the original comment if pressed.

I was just wondering if there is a way to limit the number of characters that can be entered in a textfield? Here is what I have for a helper: <%= text_area ''user'', ''rentalcar_comments'', :size => "69x4" %> I am describing a size but I need it to only allow a certain number of characters and no more. Is that possible or am I going to have to

Anyone know why my text_area field is being prefilled with "empty_clob()" instead of simply being empty like I would expect? I''m using Oracle 10g so I suspect it''s coming from the oci8 driver somehow?

I''ve been digging into rails, but this one question has been a two day stumper. I''ve got a question/answer model that I''m trying to work out.

Ok, this is driving me nuts. I''m trying to RJS some text into a text_area which may or may not have been written in by the user. if I page.insert_html :before, :after, :top, or :bottom, it either sticks the contents above or below the text box (but never in).
