I have some sidebar partials that I render to strings in my application controller''s before_filter: @left_sidebar_for_layout = render_to_string(:partial => ''shared/left_sidebar'') Then in my application layout, I simply add them as a string, like I would @content_for_layout This normally works fine.

I''m trying to marshal some information I have in Javascript, and send it over an AJAX request to the server, specifically to be stored in a model on the server side. I have some Javascript routines I wrote that gather information about the user selection.

Hi, I haven''t done any associations before, so please forgive my incorrect use of terminology... If I set up a has_many :through association, can I manipulate the associated instances directly (like an Array), or do I need to manipulate the join model? For example, suppose I have two classes and the associated join model: class foo has_many :foo_bars has_many :bars, :through

If I reboot with the USB drive attached, the boot process hangs, however if I turn off the drive, boot and then turn it on, all is fine. # cat /etc/fstab shows the drive, but I am not sure how to use it for a backup nor do I know how to access it.

I have an AccountsController that inherits from ApplicationController. In ApplicationController I define a generic layout. In this layout I render @title that is actually assigned in the AccountsController but has a default value in ApplicationController. In the layout template, I also have the standard contents_for_layout and lastly, I have a render_component. The component called from the

When I tried following the directions in the
