I have an e-commerce site and users check out with a form. The results of that form are sent to a "confirm your order" page via POST.

Hello Everyone ~ Recently I have been moving Rails files between Mac, Linux, and Windows. As many know the Windows Ruby version 1.8.4 doesn''t like tab characters.

The preferences do not seem to have such a

Hi, Going through the archive, and just keeping a general watch on this list seems to indicate that there are some issues using scheduling with backgroundrb. I need a worker that will perform some actions on an hourly interval. These actions will require access to several of the models in my application.
