similar to: find_by_sql aliasing issue when accessing attributes

When I dump an instance variable to the web browser using object.inspect I get the following: This: <%= debug archive.inspect %> Yields this: #<RapturePost:0x2aaaacada118 @attributes={\"date_created\"=>\"2006-02\"}>" How do I access that date created value? Neither of the following work. The don''t give me the actual date value, only nil or

I know this has got to be a really dumb question, but here goes anyway. I''ve got a model with an associated table. One of the columns in the table is ''date_created'', which I want to be set to the date/time each row was added to the table. Seems to me that setting this in the initialize method for the model would be the right thing to do,... class MyThing <

Hi, currently I execute 2-3 AJAX-Calls (located at the end of html-body) on loading the page.

Hi All Not specifically a scriptaculous question, but I was wondering how people were going about maintaining access to their applications via standard urls. Say for example I''ve a shop at www.shop.com, and its pure ajax to load in products. Now customer A wants to show a friend a product on the site - giving him the url www.shop.com and telling him to click on a series of links

Here''s the scenario. I have a main tree-like table (actually it''s more of a hierarchy), where the entries (or at least some of them) can be categorised as one or more of a fixed number of types (prob about 6 poss types). So an entry could be a Type A and a Type D; a Type C, D, E; just a Type F; etc. Having a join table would seem like it might get rather expensive since

Somebody suggested SmallCap and that sounds great. This is by no stretch of the imagination Capistrano, so it might better be named MicroCap but it may be useful to some who have (as I do) modest needs in this regard, especially for on-server versioning.

Hello, Is it possible to trigger an action in a controller when a table from database changes? I thought about using an utility like cron (railscron) to check every, e.g. 2 s, if the table changed, but I am wondering if there is a solution a bit more ''elegant'': to trigger an action exactly when the change is made. Best regards, -- Kuba Nowak

Hi Shakeel, Assuming that you are starting with a bunch of dates: # make a vector of character strings that can be converted to dates rep_dates<-paste(sample(1:30,500,TRUE),sample(1:12,500,TRUE), sample(2013:2017,500,TRUE),sep="/") # if this isn't your format, change it date_format<-"%d/%m/%Y" # create a data frame with a column of dates
