I want to have a form to change a users password. I can''t figure out what the method in the controller should look like. I tried @user.save and @user.update_attributes, but can''t get it to work. My Form: ############################## <%= start_form_tag :action => "update_password", :id => @user.id %> <%= password_field ("user",

After drawing many virtual blank stares in the IRC channel and finding zero results on the wiki for ''sweeper'' I''m left to wonder whether these are actually officially supported, or are on their way toward being deprecated. Is there a better way of expiring caches on model saves and deletions? Sincerely, Tom Lieber tom@alltom.com http://AllTom.com/

I have a feeds controller which generates RSS and Atom pages. I put ''caches_page :show'' in it. The problem is that the pages are saved with an html extension. As a result, browsers display the cached feeds as HTML rather than XML, and feed validators complain. There''s an option to set ''Base.page_cache_extension'' globally, but I don''t want

Hello. I spent an hour or three chasing down a desired effect that mootools implements, namely the simulation of onmouseleave and onmouseenter events. Why? Lets say you have a Menu. A ul element that contains many li elements. If you want to have a function (maybe an effect) fire when the mouse moves outside of the ul, you are out of luck. Observe the mouseout function like so:

All, I want to do an AJAX request using a custom image button. I currently have this as a standard button action using "button_to". What I need is the button equivalent of "link_to_remote". Is there a helper that I can use, or do I need to build it by hand? I see button_to_function(), but that sets me up to call a Javascript function, not post to a Rails action. Or can

What''s the page.method to change the background color of a DOM element? I''m trying to change the background color of a couple of styled <li>''s when an Ajax link is clicked.

Currently, pages generated by Rails tend to be sprinkled with JavaScript. This happens, because the various helper methods work only locally and simply append to the output. In order to hide the JavaScript away, rendering would probably have to be changed. A way I can think of is that a page-specific script is included in the head of the document and JavaScript code is not written to the

You could also try to go with the button element since it can wrap content like images. Something like: <button name="delete"><img src="..."></button> along with some styling to your liking. -Tobias -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: rubyonrails-spinoffs-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org [mailto:rubyonrails-spinoffs@googlegroups.com] På vegne af

Is there a way by which I can do form validation for form generated by In Place Editting of scritaculous? The reason is, I want to avoid server roundtrip for checks which I can perform at browser.

I made a brief post on here the other day about this and now I can proudly present the initial release of our unobtrusive_javascript plugin for Rails. We''ll be working with Dan Webb of Vivabit to roll in much of the functionality in his own as-yet unreleased unobtrusive_javascript plugin into a single plugin. This is essentially a preview release and probably not suitable for use on a

Hello people, I''d like to detect whether an attribute of a model has vaildates_presence_of applied to it so I can automatically apply a mandatory (*) to the field...it doesn''t look easy...any ideas? Cheers, -- Dan Webb http://www.danwebb.net

I asked this on the Rails list, but it might be more appropriate here. When we''re estimating how many users would have access to our site if we choose to use AJAX and script.aculo.us -style javascript, what kind of percentage are we looking at? 50%? 75%? Does this kind of fancy JS work on IE 5.0, or earlier? Thanks! Duane Johnson (canadaduane)

What if...you could produce accessible, unobtrusive javascript, using Rails built-in javascript/prototype helpers, with just one extra line of code in your layout, a plugin, and one small enhancement to the helpers. Something like this: [php] <% form_remote_tag :controller => ''foo'', :action => ''bar'', :unobtrusive => true %> # which produces

Dan Webb (http://www.vivabit.com) and I are happy to announce the latest release of the Unobtrusive Javascript plugin for Rails. This release packs in lots of cool new features, a few changes to old ones and some performance enhancements. Now you can write your behaviours in Ruby, attach behaviours directly to elements using content_tag and apply behaviours to elements without HTML IDs.

Hi the list, I try to use R-Forge for developping a projet. I am using tortoise SVN (last version) but I do not manage to Commit. I read the R-Forge user Manual and some post on but I do not manage to find the solution. Here is what I did: 1/ I download 'puttygen.exe'. I generate a key (256 bits). 2/ I save the private key in a file 'private.ppk' on my computer. 3/ I

Hi, I downloaded the unobtrusive_javascript pluing from this link (http://www.lukeredpath.co.uk/index.php/2006/06/06/introducing-unobtrusive-javascript-for-rails/) since I needed to have dynamic content in javascript (for a pop-up menu). Unfortunately I have been unable to make the plugin work. I followed the instructions on the website, but for some reason the javascript doesn?t work (for

I just coded an unobtrusive In Place Editor and wanted to get some review and comments for it. Anyone spot anything obvious that I could do to streamline this?
