I have a working sortable_list that is added to by AJAX. The problem is that when a new item is added, it''s not sortable. I found a post on scriptaculous using behaviour.js to refresh the DOM when an item is added, but I can''t figure out how to do it with Rails. To test the behaviour method, I used this: var myrules={ ''div#steps ul'' :

Good morning guys, I've compiled and installed rsync 2.5.5 on 2 AIX 4.3 systems. When I try to run this command rsync --stats --progress --delete --partial --timeout=60 -aRntvz patrick@aix1::test /test I get this message and I don't know why. On both systems I run the command as root, what could be the cause ? Oh I was getting the same message with rsync 2.4.X and I still get it with the

Hello, Is there a patch laying around somewhere to convert Textile to LaTeX? (Instiki did/does this?) Or, better yet, is RedCloth 3.1 still in the pipeline?

Hi, I''m struggling with this and I''m not sure if it is obvious or dumb (or both). I have a basic create method like so: def creatematerial @material = Material.new(params[:material]) if @material.save flash[:notice] = "Material successfully created." end Ok so far, but now I want to retrieve that object that was just saved so that it can be used in the

So I just wanted to review what most of my new code does for those who are not familiar with it yet. ====== The biggest feature of my work is the docbook export. This means that any valid textile markup can be exported to the docbook standard. I added a new chapter tag to go along with the export. ch. 1. Here is the title In HTML, this will produce: <h1>1. Here is the

Xenlinux uses a special architecture-dependent bit in the page table, called PG_arch_1 to indicate that a page is "foreign" (PG_foreign). It also apparently uses it to determine if a page is pinned (PG_pinned). Linux/ia64 (and apparently Linux/ppc and Linux/ppc64) use the PG_arch_1 bit for other purposes. On Linux/ia64, it is used to determine if the instruction cache needs to be

Asked a little while back about "coolest startups" using Rails, I think it''d have been better had I asked "coolest software." Besides the obvious (37Signals, Typo, Yakima Herald, Odeo, Measure Map, etc.), I''m just curious about other developments where people are using it to make nifty stuff. -- Giles Bowkett www.gilesgoatboy.org

Hi -- well, that''s what I''m trying to do. Does anyone know what the best way to do it is? I have three controllers, each one has a hidden tag, and I want each one to salt its respective tag with the name of the action in effect, at the time that action runs, for every action in the controller. -- Giles Bowkett http://www.gilesgoatboy.org

I have a little web app where we need to paginate collections of items. I''m trying to sort the collection and then pass it, sorted, to a Paginator, and still be able to paginate through the collection, across several pages, with the new sort order. The only thing I''m doing differently from the regular scaffolding approach is this: @order_pages = Paginator.new(self,

I appear to have written code which travels backwards through time: http://www.vimeo.com/742590 This disturbs me immensely. If anyone can explain it, that would be cool. I think it''s an illusion brought about by how RSpec wraps the code it executes, and by the sheer weirdness of continuations. -- Giles Bowkett Blog: http://gilesbowkett.blogspot.com Portfolio:

Hi all, where I work we''ve cooked up a kind of ghetto profiler for our specs. It basically just does this: time = Time.now # run the spec puts "woah! dude. long spec." if time > 1.second I''m simplifying here. I think the threshold is actually 0.1 seconds, and we use more precise language, and highlight the spec in red via terminal colors, etc. But the way it works

This is something I''ve come up against twice. First, I have an interactive editor which calls vi, emacs, or TextMate (etc.) via Unix, and then loads the file handed to the editor back into IRB after it''s edited and saved. I guess that makes it a special case of a more general question, which is how do you spec external processes, with a slightly more complicated version of the

OK, so for most of my career, I''ve done everything on an hourly rate. Recently somebody kind of pointed out that if you bill by the milestone you can work on multiple projects simultaneously without any ethical problems, so you get increased efficiency. Does anyone have any good advice/URLs/books on how to do cost estimates on a project? I''ve really always kind of avoided the

OK, general question for the community -- what''s the coolest startup using Rails? I don''t think "37 Signals" is a fair answer. I''m curious as to what kind of other developments are happening. Are there a lot of startups using Rails in the first place? Or do most of you who are lucky enough to do Rails for a living (I''m coding Java, bleah) work in large

Last week I had the pleasure of attending the Raleigh area Ruby users Meetup. It was very interesting and very informative. I did feel a bit out of place when we noticed that of the 11-12 people there, I was the only one with a PC laptop. The rest were shiny macs. Ah well, I need to replace this thing soon, and now that BootCamp is out, I really have no more excuses. This way I can test

Hi - I''ve got a pretty popular Rails app on a Mongrel cluster with Apache and mod_proxy_balancer. How do I decide how many Mongrel servers to put in the cluster? I don''t have stats for the number of requests hitting the server yet, but I should have that data soon. The server has 2GB of RAM and has to do a lot of work with RMagick, including generating and storing lots of

form_remote_tag has a really useful little thingamob called :condition. you give it a string which is then interpolated into the form tag in such a way that the form is only submitted if :condition evaluates in javascript to true. so the logical thing to do is give it a JavaScript function <%= form_remote_tag ( :condition => ''your_function_here()'',
