I have chunk of data that I need for the life of the session. I am going to use it for selects through out my app. Is the best place to keep this data in the session? Is the session easily spoofed or cracked? While viewing the data is not critical in itself, spoofing it could cause me massive headaches. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello Campers! Is it just me or does Camping init the session twice on a redirect? If I have an app and when the user visits it for the first time, a session is generated. Afterwards I redirect the user in a service (that basically does auth) and he gets bounced to the login page - but when I arrive at the login page my SID somehow has changed :-( so there is a stale session dangling

query strings built by R method can''t handle multiple values from checkbox selections R(SomeRoute, :reply_status=>%w{1 2 4}) should return query_string=" http://localhost:3301/someroute/?reply_status_id=1&reply_status_id=2&reply_status_id=4 " qsp(query_string) -> {"reply_status_id"=>["1", "2", "4"]} from

I''ve read about the problems of using page cache when there''s a query string, i.e. /article/list?page=1 will cache /article/list.html, then /article/list?page=5 will retrieve /article/list.html regardless of query string. I''m using a workaround, it looks almost obvious but since I haven''t found it mentioned anywhere I''m afraid there''s some

Is there any way to access the query string full request uri in routes.rb? I''d like to route requests for those going after my old application urls to my new rails application urls. The old app used /wiki.cgi?PageName The rails app uses /wiki/show/PageName Like... map.connect ''wiki.cgi'', :controller => "wiki", :action => "show", :id =>

Guys, I''m frankly overwhelmed by the number of Rails authentication options(?) out there...from ActiveRBAC to acts_as_authenticated to LoginEngine and so on...so many options, yet on resource I''ve found really distinguishes between each. This is sad, as authentication and user management is really an area where some Rails simplicity pixie dust could be a real boon to

Hi All, I''m trying to wrap me head around how I could use Rails for a particular app that I''ll be designing that involves multiple legacy databases that I''ll need to query and update. Basically, it''s a financial services type of app where a customer will log in and be able to check/manage the varied types of accounts that they have. Sounds simple enough

I want to show a users entries based on there login id. I have tried this: View: <div id="myfish"> <%= render :partial => ''myfish'', :locals => {:user => session [:user].id } %> </div> Partial: <% for entry in @entries %> <table border ="0" CELLSPACING="0"> <tr class="<%= alternate

When using the nbd_aio_FOO_callback commands, there is nothing further to be learned about the command by calling nbd_aio_command_completed() compared to what the callback already had access to. There are still scenarios where manually retiring the command after the fact is useful (whether the return was 0 to keep the status unchanged, or -1 to alter the retirement status to *error), but by

Now that we properly clean up 'trans' in the reader thread, we must not dereference 'trans' from the write thread at any point after trans has been added to the list unless we have grabbed it back off the list ourselves, or we risk an occasional use-after-free or even double free that valgrind can detect.

hi there, I''m not sure if it is better to use the ml or the forum so I ended to post on both ... I''m trying to login into a page that is using javascript to set a cookie: <script language="JavaScript"> {text "\n" " \n" " \n" " document.cookie = ''vhp_js=v995105608h85339294p;path=/;domain=.venere.com;expire=0'';

I''m implementing a simpler version of the Cookie Session Store in Rails 2.0. If you know what that is, skip the next paragraph. A cookie session store stores the session data inside cookies, on the client, and signs them using a secret string, hashed together. The user can decode the cookie easily if they know much about computers and see what''s inside, but they

Hello everyone, I'm trying to run Diablo2 version 1.06 on SuSE Linux 6.4 (kernel 2.4.2) with WINE 20010418. Both the contents of the windoze installation and the game have been copied over the network from another machine where everything works happily. When I run the game nothing really seems to be happening. With tracing enabled I can see that after some initialization the game just spins

R-helpers, When I use cURL in the Terminal: curl --cookie-jar cookie.txt --url "http://corpusdelespanol.org/x.asp" --user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.7; rv:16.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0" --location --include a cookie file "cookie.txt" is saved to my working directory.
