I have an action/view that I need to return only data (other external processes query this action/view) but I need the standard_layout template to be attached to the other actions/views in the same controller. ie, the editing of the data in the model needs to include all the navigation, except one view which should just return a text/plain output. how do I say "include

Hi, when I define a db column to be non-nullable or of length 20 or as numeric, I would expect rails to validate that, but that doesn''t seem to be the case. Any idea why that is? The metadata is accessible, at least in the mysql case. I am using rails 1.0 with mysql 5. Cheers, Mariano

Hi, My saves are failing me and I can''t figure out why. I am trying to save an address id to a user object just after I create the address. This isn''t the exact code, but it shows what I am trying to do. class AddressesController < ApplicationController def create @address = Address.new(params[:address]) saved_address = @address.save @user =

Hello, I am a complete newbie with Ruby and Rails. I am working on learning it by writing a project I was going to write in PHP using Rails. I am having a difficult time finding clear information on how I would do this. I need to take a date out of a table in my database and given another day calculate the next 28 day anniversery of the original date. This is used to calculate a delivery

The agile book says "You can inspect variables, set values, add other breakpoints, and generally have a good time". This is very sweet and totally useless. For example, I want to see the session variable, the cookies variable and so on. These names are unknown. I think I guess that the things that are available depend on where you put the breakpoint() call. I''ve tried a

I have a simple object, Article, which has_one :parent of the same time. On my Show page for a given article there will be a "new child" button which will pass the current :id (or the current Article itself) to the new form. What is the proper way to hide a reference to this parent in the form so that when it is submitted back, the create method knows what to do with it?

For example I have table Questions. With fields id, text, and test_id. test_id is not being displayed in my view. I am hoping this means Rails has picked up that it is an id for another model. If so, then how do I utilize that? If not, then do I need to avoid ''id'' in any field names other than the main id field? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I finally found that Firefox was the difference. When using Firefox on those computers it works fine. The slow pages were typically posting a form with a couple hundred fields. This behavior was

Hey I just launched a new release of www.strongside.dk based on rails 1.1. The site is in danish so it wont make any sense to most of you. However, here at technique I want to share with you. Some of the pages on that site requires a lot of calculations, but the data is actually static. So these pages are cached. However, when a logged on user is viewing a cached page, we still want to

It should not interfere with the Rails routing in the root folder. If .htaccess is the way, please help me out here, I suck at mod_rewrite... --
