similar to: [Article] Great Browser Expectations

I just finished posting an article on creating a lightweight but very functional web grid that does a slick job of live updating whatever content you put in. Much like Rails itself, I pulled the code from an active project effort, in the hopes that others would find it useful. http://unspace.ca/discover/datagrid Or, for the impatient, give the demo a shot: http://unspace.ca/datagrid Feedback

I just finished my latest contribution, "Open Says Me". http://unspace.ca/discover/opensaysme/ Managing the browser experience using JavaScript, Ajax and a Cookie. It''s built on top of Rails, of course. Feedback is always appreciated! Pete

I just published a new article on how and why (and when!) to do away with paginated search results, in favour of a more natural, endlessly scrolling page. http://unspace.ca/discover/pageless/ I provide code and an example of how to implement this in Rails and Prototype. Opinions and suggestions welcomed! Pete Unspace Interactive Inc. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You

Monday, March 13th @ 7pm at C''est What? (67 Front St. East in Toronto, ON) Spread the word! The inaugural Toronto Rails pub nite will be an opportunity to meet the folks working on Rails in your community. There will be plenty of opportunity to discuss projects you''re involved with, recruit talent, and even find out what all of the fuss is about! Unspace wants to support the

Ryan McMinn as well as myself from Unspace Interactive are going to ETech next week. We know fellow Torontonian David Crow will be there with bells on. And clearly DHH is coming to do his workshop. Who else is coming, and is there any interest in trying to do a Rails BOF during the main conference? Obviously a lot of folks are going to do the workshop, but most people don''t arrive

I''m currently planning a social app in Rails that relies on being able to see how far you are from everyone else. It''s my intention to store rough geo-coordinates as part of the sign up process. My intention is to capture their zipcode or postal code, and then be able to query a webservice once for that data. It''s also possible that there might be a database or even

My proposal for a BOF session at ETech was accepted! Any Rails-folk in attendance on Tuesday are encouraged to come to Elizabeth Ballroom A between 8:30-930pm. http://conferences.oreillynet.com/cs/et2006/view/e_sess/9113 The goal for the session is to discuss how we can empower ourselves to return to our local peer communities and advocate Rails as the web development technology people

in my routes.rb, I have such url map.file '':user/:file it works well with following url: 1. jay/web 2. jay/web2 but it encounters error with: jay/web2.0 it displays : no route found to match "/post/web2.o" with {:method=>:get} I guess it is because the char ''.'' and rails can not translate it exactly. How can I　fix it ? thank you zico -- Posted via

I am attempting to use Ajax.Updater to update the innerHTML of a SELECT - that is, to feed it a list of <option>..</option> sets generated from a partial. It works as expected on FF1.5, but in IE6 it renders as an empty select. When I use the DOM viewer (or an alert()) to dump the value of innerHTML, it appears intact EXCEPT that the first <option> is missing with no

I''ve recently submitted two patches (#5122 and #5266) to the Rails trac. These patches are actually for Prototype. There appears to be very little discussion about Prototype on this list, but I wanted to share what I''ve been doing in the hopes of soliciting some feedback from you folks. If this isn''t the right place to discuss Prototype, mea culpa - where should I

Apologies if this is out of place. I just wanted to mention to the list that I''ve completed my first Rails app and wanted to show it to you guys.

I''ve been lurking here for a little while, and well,

So someone finally named server-push through HTTP-keepalive "Comet" It''s also been implemented in a very nice Java/Javascript library called DWR. http://ajaxian.com/archives/dwr-20-reverse-ajax Has there been any discussion by "the core" about adding this to Rails 1.2? :) -- seth at subimage interactive http://www.subimage.com/sublog/ -------------- next part

Hi Is there a way to save session data on the file system (like in Rails) instead of a database table? The reason I''m asking is, that I''m writing a Camping application without using ActiveRecord (mostly for learning purposes) and I don''t want to use ActiveRecord just for sessions.

Hi, I have some seed data in MySql which contains non-ASCII characters (as you''d imagine as these are worldwide placenames that I''m storing). In MySql on the command line they look great, they''re all formatted perfectly, including Arabic and Chinese characters and they look great. However, when I ask my Rails model for one of these fields, and render that in the
