Dear all, file_column now works fine with object.save i.e., it updates my database field with the correct image file name and places the image file into the correct public folder. However, I cannot get file_column to work the same way with object.update when trying to change image. It only updates my field with the image file name. However, the new image is not copied into the correct

I''m trying to use the file_column plug-in to attach a file to a newsletter posting. It works fine if I get the form right the first time, but if I get an error, such as not typing in a required field, and the form re-displays, my file selection box reverts to "no file selected." Here''s my relevant controller code: def new @newsletterpost = Newsletterpost.new

is there a way using the file_column plugin to enforce a certain content type based on regex (i.ie, /^image/) and/or filesize (150k) ? thanks adam

1) installation is not as smooth as some other plug-ins. If you follow the instructions on http://www.kanthak.net/opensource/file_column/ it makes a directory called trunk instead of file_column. You have to manually rename it to file_column. I guess this is a minor annoyance but it gives me the feeling that things aren''t quite like other plugins. 2) I get this error: undefined

The way file_column deals with an uploaded file -- by storing it to the filesystem in a path that employs the model name and id --

I''m developing on Windows and deploying to FreeBSD+lighttpd using Switchtower and I''ve got things generally working. My problem now is that file_column data gets zapped every time I deploy, because Switchtower creates a whole new myapp/public directory with each rev.
