Im using the file_column plugin to upload files from my application. The problem I am encountering is that I have a form with 2 file upload fields and when I submnit that form with files selected, I would get a message from the browser(Firefox) saying that a script on the page is taking a long time to execute and whether I want to cancel it or continue. Whichever option I choose, only 1 file(PDF)

For my weekend project, I''m going to get form_remote_tag and file_column playing happily together. According to my research, no one has done this yet. If you happen to have tried this, and have some workable code, send me an email. I''d rather not duplicate the effort.

i have a 2 step form which contains 1 file_column field. The second form is just "This is how your post will look" kind of form and the user can click Edit (to take them back to form1) or Submit. If the user clicks edit it takes them back to the first form with fields populated. I have it working with all text fields, I just dont know how to do this with file_column field (showing the

I''m writing a ''Mailman'' model that catches emails sent to my application (kind of like backpack, I think). The trouble is that I''d like to save image attachments in the same was that file_column saves them--in fact, I''d really like to use a simple assignment like photo.image = attachment to save the image in its proper place. However,

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

is there a way using the file_column plugin to enforce a certain content type based on regex (i.ie, /^image/) and/or filesize (150k) ? thanks adam

I really want to try out file_column but the repository seems to be down for me. I added it to my repository list and script/plugin is unable to see anything in it. I downloaded an archive from the website but it is not clear to me which files need to be installed to which subdirs of my RoR project. Anyone else having this issue with the repository? I am able to see other repositorys no

I have tried to upload a picture file with file_column plugin and form_remote_tag, but no success. When I do request.params.inspect it shows null for picture parameters. With normal form the file uploads nicely, so is it possible to upload file with form_remote_tag? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

does anyone know much about resizing different versions of images with file_column? i tried it and everything works fine, but my question is can you do more than just make sizes with a version of image? i''m working on a photo album and i would like to resize the image to a medium size, but create a thumbnail as well and crop anything left to make the thumbnail a perfect square. --

I have several models that will be using file_column by way of the "Picture" class (HABTM). Right now, all pictures are stored in: public/picture/image/1/filename1.jpg public/picture/image/2/filename2.jpg Is there a way I can dynamically define the "store_dir" based on the model? For example, if I have "user", "product" and "place" models all

I asked this question earlier and did recieve an answer but I am not sure Ifully understood the answer as I am getting all sorts of errors when trying to implement. Basically I want to add a layer to the path for my files. I have the following set up in my model class: file_column :image, :store_dir => :dynamic_dir def dynamic_dir

form_remote_tag does not support the input type=file. This is due to javascript security limitations. I created a plugin that modifies form_remote_tag so that if you pass it the option: :html => {:multipart => true}, it will submit via an iframe, allowing you to upload files. It works nicely with file_column :). Currently, it only works with RJS templates (no :update option), and I only

I was looking at Kyle Mawell''s extremely nifty-looking StateModels plugin http://www.kylemaxwell.com/articles/2006/02/06/fun-with-single-table-inheritance and before I go down the road with it, I was wondering if anyone has used it with file_column. The way file_column deals with an uploaded file -- by storing it to the filesystem in a path that employs the model name and id --

I''m trying to set a multi-value cookie but for some reason it''s not working. Any help would be appreciated. cookies[:user] = { :value => {:email=>params[:login][:email], :passwd=>params[:login][:passwd]}, :expires => 30.days.from_now, :path => "/login"} -- Thiago Jackiw

I built out a simple CMS for websites that rely heavily on portfolios. This covers graphic and web designers in particular, but also other people with stuff to show off. It''s really easy to customize progressively, so that some people will only modify CSS, but others will dig deeper into Javascript behaviors and the Rails view code.

To make file_column work I have to copy my local variable back to an instance variables like this: <% for product in @products @product = product %> <div class="catalogentry"> <%= image_tag url_for_file_column(''product'', ''image_url'') %></p> This is needed because file_column specifically looks for the instance

I updated RailsCron to fix some threading issues with ActiveRecord. Please update if you were on 0.2.1. Also, I am still working on a good unit test strategy (its tricky because I would think that the tests must occur over a lot of time), but haven''t had/made time to give it its due. If you have suggestions, please let me know. -- Kyle Maxwell Chief Technologist E Factor Media // FN

Hello, Is it possible to enforce minimum image size and other validations using file_column? if so does anybody have some examples. I have looked at Kyle''s file_column extension and I saw that it enforces format''s (jpg,pdf etc) but nothing for size. Thanks!
