Hello everyone! I''m thinking of the right way to store tmp/ directory of Rails 1.1 project in Subversion. It has cache, session and sockets subdirectories. To me, it looks good to have svn delete tmp/* svn propset svn:ignore "*" tmp So it will ignore all directories and files in tmp/. Even if you create sessions/ and put some files in it, tmp/ content is still ignored. But

Hello everyone! I want to have login field in User model which is set only once (on create), and then it should fail validation if the value is changed. How can I do this?

Hello everyone! I''ve noticed, that the book uses double quotes almost everywhere. It is like <%= javascript_include_tag "prototype" %> I''ve checked the "programming ruby, 2ed" book and found that double quotes are most suited when escape sequences and substitutions are required. Isn''t it more semantically correct to write this code like

I''m using the iframe trick to upload files with form_tag and a target pointing to the iframe. All is working, but I would like to display an indicator of the upload. All I want to do is show a hidden animated gif via Element.show. With form_remote_tag, i could use the :loading and :complete callbacks to do an Element.show and Element.hide. How do I achieve a similar effect with form_tag?

However, the default behavior of acts_as_versioned appears to apply to individual rows within a table. The tables I want to version are complicated lookup tables and what I really want is to version the entire contents of each table as a single set. Adding a row, deleting a row, or updating

I
