My question is, what if I don''t want to have to retrieve the instance variable every single time but I have the image id, along with its name with me. Could I contruct that object in a view and pass it to url_for_file_column: <% @picture = Picture.new %> @picture.id = ...

Hi, Sebastian Kanthak of the file_column-Plugin wrote once: "is the photo object inside a local variable or an instance variable (e.g. photo or @photo)? url_for_file_column only works with instance variables, like all other active record form helpers.

Hi, I have the following in a viewer Here, @lst = Homework.find(:all) is an array of homeworks. I checked this this is correct. Based on the error below, somehow, the url_for_file_colum does not like to act on the model element. I checked the source code to url_for_file_column, and the problem is with instance_variable_get().

Hey, I''ve gotten file_column to upload a file, drop it in the dynamic directory, but I can''t display the image, the directories repeat themselves: My model: class Person < ActiveRecord::Base file_column :image_url In my view: <%= image_tag url_for_file_column(''person'', ''image_url'') %> HTML generated is this: <img

1) installation is not as smooth as some other plug-ins. If you follow the instructions on http://www.kanthak.net/opensource/file_column/ it makes a directory called trunk instead of file_column.

Hi Guys, I have been struggling with this one for a while... file_column 0.3.1 My file gets uploaded and thumbnailed correctly, however <%= url_for_file_column("item", "image") %> returns nil...
