Hi everyone. I recently wrote a nice module that I want to use in my rails app. It consists of a few files in a directory that I have places in the lib directory. It looks like this: /lib/KMLTools/foo.rb, bar.rb, baz.rb Some of these files load each other and I finally got those to work by using the File.dirname(__FILE__) trick. When I simply require the file into my controller, everything is

All, Rails 1.1.2 Win XP Pro Rubyful Soup 1.0.4 htmltools 1.0.9 I am terribly confused as to what pulling in a gem does with respect to how many modules get loaded at runtime.

When I started my app, something was causing

I am trying to use a RubyGem in Rails. Given that Rails itself is a Gem, I''m a little confused. I don''t seem to be able to successfully get at my gem. Any clever debugging tricks?

All, I would like to test some secure pages that I''m developing in my WEBrick-based development environment. I''ve done some research and it appears that I need to create a new command that will start a HTTPS based WEBrick server. Is this correct?

All, I''ve run into a snag. I need to handle the display of elements on my page and I want to use my Javascript event handlers on page load. However, my BODY tag is trapped in my generic layout.
