One my of my CDs has a bar code, 4 011222 044068, which is titled "EAN CODE". Another one simply has a barcode, 07822-18646-2, without any title.

Hello out there! Nooby question: What''s the "Rails" way to work with tables of relatively static lookup data? Objectively (I''m thinking); I don''t want to hit the DB each time, so for each lookup table, initialize a globally available hash with lable/value pairs... Am I on the right track? How would you do this kind of thing in Rails? Thanks! --

Hello all! I have a list of people on a page, and some of this people have pictures of them stored on the web server.

Hi all, I''ve got these company (has) contacts relational tables. I want to make sure a company can''t be deleted when it still has contacts. (because I can now, which results in nil like errors when listing the contacts ... obviously) Are there any helpers to do so, is Rails aware of this? Or do I need to put in a condition before destroying the company record in question

Col1 Col2 Col3 A B D A B E A C F A C G Which becomes difficult to read when you have a lot of repeated data. What I would really like to generate

Hi All, Is it necessary to always have a controller per model?
