Passing Multiple Values In URL
Been a while since I programmed in Ruby and Rails and some of the
basic concepts I just loose so quickly. This one I can''t find any
examples of.
I want to pass two pieces of information in my URL. The :id plus I
want to pass my user_id. How do I pass it using the link_to?
Stupid question I know... but I can''t find the answer.

acts_as_versioned and acts_as_taggable on same model?
I am trying to use acts_as_versioned and acts_as_taggable (plugin) on
the exact same model. Has anyone successfuly done this? I think
what I need to do is make model_versions acts_as_taggable instead of
my main model. Anyone have any other suggestions or any suggestions
how to do this?

Edge Rails, Ruby 1.8.2 and "uninitialized constant ''modelname''" error

"rake freeze_edge" and every time I do that my application stops to
work. I get an error on every page. I get a "uninitialized constant
modelname" error where modelname is the object being created for that

Using Random Longer Non-Sequential IDs
Instead of using sequential integers for IDs for my objects I was
wondering if I could easily make it so that my IDs where longer auto-
generated random strings/integers.
So instead of:
http://www.mydomain.com/user/view/1
Would be:
http://www.mydomain.com/user/view/d81096b87a7c5565f
On top of that... is there big benefits for security reasons to use
non-sequential numbers? Is it worth

When a user creates a post I also want to save all the tags
associated with it. I do that in the post_controller like this
presently:

@post.user_id = session[:id]

acts_as_taggable plugin and multi word tags
I decided to play with the plugin acts_as_taggable based on Chad
Fowler''s book Rails Recipes. Is it just me or can tags only be one
word? If not can you explain to me how to assign multi-word tags
using the acts_as_taggable plugin.
Thanks :-)

Creating An Extra Association Between Two Tables
Good Friday Everyone :-).
These are my models:
Problem -> has_and_belongs_to_many :tags
Tag -> has_and_belongs_to_many :problems
Now if a tag does not exist and I create it and associate it to the
problem it works
self.tags << Tag.create(:name => tag)
But if I have the tag already in the DB and just want to link it to
another problem it does not really like me. I do it

link_to and fragment identifiers
Fragment identifiers, it took me 30 minutes just to figure out what
they are called.
I would like to be able to create url that looks like this:
post/view/id#comments
How do I do that with a link_to function?
link_to "Comments", :controller => "post", :action => "view", :id =>
post.id ???
Thanks guys! :-)

Updating Fields In Migration for HABTM Relationship
Earlier I forgot to add updated_at and created_at columns for my
HABTM relationship so I created a migration to add them. In the
migration I also want to go back and set the value of the created_at
and updated_at columns for the previous rows. What is the best way
to do that?
Initially I thought I was being smart and decided to put an UPDATE
SQL query in a find_by_sql statement and
