Hi all, New to the list, Ruby, & RoR. I''ve been going through the Rolling With Rails tutorial, but am getting the following error when the instructions tell you to add the @recipes = Recipe.find_all line to the RecipeController: Template is missing Missing template ./script/../config/..//app/views//recipe/index.rhtml The index.rhtml file is right where it''s supposed to

The documentation states as an example: select("post", "person_id", Person.find_all.collect {|p| [ p.name, p.id ] }, { :include_blank => true }) could become: <select name="post[person_id]"> <option></option> <option value="1" selected="selected">David</option> <option

After *much* digging and playing around, I finally figured out how to unit test instance variables that are created by actions. It was more difficult than I expected. It seems like there should have been a more straight forward way to do this. Can someone enlighten me? A simplified and somewhat contrived example of what I am current doing: Thanks.

Still Stumbled on First things in trying RubyOnRails http://www.digitalmediaminute.com/article/1816/top-ruby-on-rails-tutorials http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/tutorial/index.html http://rails.homelinux.org/ I had tried the first of the top 12 tutorials and got stuck after adding a new field ?category_id?in the table recipes,

I want to write a validate routine to check to enforce that a position must be unique in a category. (In another category, it doesn''t have to and shouldn''t need to be unique.)
