Here''s my crazy question of the day. Has anybody played around with using Rails to create Mac OS X Dashboard Widgets? Or is that just sick and wrong? Giles

I would like to define some constants that I can use across models and views and I cannot figure out how to do that.

CompanyPhoneNo = "(602) 999-9999" and be able to use it in any view

I''m on Mac OSX and I''m about to rip my hair out over how hard it is to install rails. I''ve installed rubygems and am typing "ruby setup.rb" in the command line and get "No such file or directory." I''ve never had to use command lines before so this is alien to me. Can''t they just make installation GUI-based for non-geeks like

Anyone know (or know where to point me to) to figure out how to force Rails into development mode? I''d like to not have to kill dispatch.fcgi everytime I make a change. My site is not live and I''m just doing development and testing right now. Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

That shows I don''t understand well that part of AR. There''s the argument that says that not all databases offer metadata about foreign keys, but the natural question then is that,

Hello, How do I prevent previously submitted form data from being reinserted into the database when the user presses the browser''s Refresh button? On Aughey''s advice in #irc I tried using `redirect_to'' a new `:action'' but this approach doesn''t seems to work. Any idea what might be wrong or how to tackle this problem? Thanks for your help.

using the below: <%= select(''project'', ''project_type_id'', @project_types.collect {|x| [x.name,x.id]}, {:include_blank => true}) %> but i''d like that first option to have something like "select project type" with an empty value?

I have been using Locomotive for rails development and recently decided to fix up the ruby/rails install that is on my mac. As we all know, Ruby 1.8.2 came on the mac and has problems, so I followed the instructions at Hivelogic for installing the latest versions of Ruby, Rails, Lighttpd and so forth. I have this set in my path within bash_login: export

Hi all, I''m a web designer/-developer. I found Ruby and Ruby on Rails, and as I can understand (for now) this is what I''ve been looking for. I''m really exited about this. Prior to this I''ve used Lasso and PHP. But a few questions (sitting on Mac OS 10.4.6). I tried to install according to this:

Hello, If your operation depends on FreeBSD you should be aware there is currently a funding request by the FreeBSD security officer.
