similar to: Right way to pass conditionals to partials

Excuse my ignorance on partials but..... I am trying to use partials to create a uniform display box built with html tables. The only way I have thought about accomplishing this is to create two partials: _start_box.erb ---------------- <table id="box" width="<%= width %>"><tr><th><%= h(label_text) %></th></tr><tr><td>

Hi, Just wondering: when do people use a helper and when a partial? I''ve just converted a bunch of partials into helpers because I didn''t like the syntax of partials where I can had to pass in a :locals hash every time. I wonder what advantages a partial has over a helper and vice versa. I guess a partial has easier access to the controller and various assigned variables,

Hiall, I have a question concerning the use of local variables in partials. Given that obviously all instance variables of the invoking controller are available to the partial (as they are available to the normal template), what situations are there in which to use local variables? Another question concerns the :object parameter in render :partial => "xxx", :object => @foo. Is it

I'm tyring to fit a relatively simple nls model to some data, but keep coming up against the same error (code follows): Oto=nls(Otolith ~ Linf*(1-exp(-k(AGE-to))), data = ages, start = list(Linf=1000, k=0.1, to=0.1), trace = TRUE) The error message I keep getting is "Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : could not find function "k"". I've used this

Not sure where to ask this, I've been googling and not finding much that is helpful. At work I've got a multi-threaded program targeted at Linux. It compiles on RHEL 2.1 and 3, and is targeted at 2.1, 3, and 4. UP until today, the binary built on 3 has worked fine on 4. But on RHEL4 update 4 it dies a horrible death in pthread_create. I have reproduced the problem on Centos 4.4, where I

hi, I saw that Mike Dransfield tried to port 'state' plugin from beryl. What does it do? It should be able to place windows, based on name, class etc., to specific viewports. I recently converted to compiz window manager from WindowMaker (used it for 8 years), and I miss automatic 'pinning' of specific windows to particular workspace (or viewport in this case). Mike's

Hi all, I'm under the gun to rid ourselves of the nt4 PDC which we currently use. options are A/D, samba, pgina. I really dig pgina, but dont think I can pass citrix credentials properly :( So I'm left with samba vs A/D. A/D is well,, ummmmm A/D, so tyring to avoid it. Currently have used Samba file servers for years. Have played with Samba PDC with2.2 Now, going to try

Hello, It''s pretty hard giving a practical example on this one. I have a partial which contains some generated Javascript. Something like: order_screen.rhtml ------------------------------------------- <h1>Order</h1> <div id="order_part"> <%=render :partial=>''order_new'' %> </div> <h1>Ordered products</h1>

Hi, I''m using partial() to connect ours pages togother, however, one of the partials is larger than the other, when it happens, instead of create a scrollbar on the browser, a scrollbar appears at the end of the partial, since the partial is in the middle of the web site. it isn''t really good... So does some one know how to remove the scrollbar on the partial and put it on the

hi all i was wondering whether it is possible to use partials along with form_for and form_field. following code is not working. is there some error or this case is impossible..?? *#new.html.erb* <h1>Enter Details for new Partner:</h1> <% form_for(@partner) do |f| %> <%= render :partial => ''form'', :locals => {:partner => f} %> <p>

Hello all I prefer to use many partials. It makes my code more DRY Also I use rspec, and when I have to test partial with sub partials I have a problem. if I stub render, then my partial will not be rendered. If i do not stub render it tries to render sub partial (and i don''t need this) Not very long googling did not bring the answer, so I made very dirty and IMHO dangerous function

Hi, I''m developing an application that uses a layout called main on every page. Most of the individual pages are represented with a single partial template, but there are several pages that are composed of multiple partials. My main layout looks something like this: Code: <html> <head> <title><%= @title %></title> <%= stylesheet_link_tag

(Just getting started w rails, web app dev for a long time...) I have some partials that are common across multiple controllers. They''re not universal, so they don''t belong to be part of these controllers'' layouts. It appears that I can put them at the root of /views/, and render them using a relative path, like so: <%= render :partial => "./footer"

Hi I am using a ''master'' layout in my project by putting "layout ''main''" in my application controller so that the same layout is applied to every controller and I would like to use partials in the layout file (obeying DRY, of course!) but if I render a partial in the layout then whenever the layout is rendered by a controller the layout looks for

Since i can''t figure out how to use heredocs with erb. im looking at solving my problem with partials, but since partials seem to have a completely separate namespace/scope im looking for a way to pass the entire scope of the calling rhtml to the partial. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hunter Peress

Let''s say I have a "main" controller/view and a "sub" controller/view. If I have defined a partial in "main" for the site header (_site_header.rhtml) can I share it with "sub" or does "sub" have to duplicate it, use a symbolic link to the file, or convert the cool partial into an ugly helper? It would be nice to have a shared placed

I have a lot of partials, so I find that my production.log file gets pretty cluttered and large quickly and it makes it more difficult to use. I like most of the messages, I just don''t see a need for taking up a line for each partial that is rendered. The logging is done in action_pack in the log_subscriber file here: class LogSubscriber < ActiveSupport::LogSubscriber def

I have several partials containing dynamic codes (already memcached all the fragments as best I could), which I reuse ( render :partial => "stuff.rhtml" ) a lot within a single action call. For example, I have a partial which defines how an entry is to be formated in HTML. I have 40 entries on a page, so the partial is rendered 40 times in a single action. Not knowing the

We run an icecast server that several people in Louisville use for audio streaming. A number of people have expressed an interest in video streaming through it, too, but cringe when I talk about setting up a linux server for streaming. Has anyone managed to get streaming working from Windows media encoder using the directshow plug ins? I'd like to be able to tell people they can encode the
