Looks like my first question a couple of days ago wasn?t very clever
asked, at least very sucessfull....
So, anyway...i will try it again:
I have to prefix that I am far away from fully understanding the overall
concept yet, and there?s no way to get some hints in the www so far, at

limiting options in file_upload
Does anyone know if it''s possible to set constraints to the size & type of file that file_column will accept?
I''d like to limit to image files of less than 2MB.
If this isn''t possible with file_column, is there a graceful way of getting the controller to handle it?
thanks

problems with file_column plugin
1) installation is not as smooth as some other plug-ins. If you follow
the instructions on
http://www.kanthak.net/opensource/file_column/
it makes a directory called trunk instead of file_column. You have to
manually rename it to file_column. I guess this is a minor annoyance but
it gives me the feeling that things aren''t quite like other plugins.
2) I get this error: undefined

file_column howto (beginner)
I''m trying to use file_column as a Rails plugin.
Of course I read the doc (from Sebastian, this maillist) and little
bit of source (as good as I, newbie, could understand it)..
But I''m not able to implement it in my app.. I''m a totally newbie with
less software development experience.
I get the file_column_field in my view with simply invoking the

File.size() on Uploaded Images Fail
I am checking the file size of an uploaded file and storing it in a filesize
column. It will work just fine when the user uploads any files other than
images (jpg,png,gif).
Word, Excel, Powerpoint, .zip and more all work fine.
This is my model asset.rb that handles the file upload.
def newfile=(newfile_field)
self.filename = base_part_of(newfile_field.original_filename)

FileColumn - Validate Before Saving
file_column is great -- but I need a way to run through the validations
(ie: validates_file_format_of) before saving. That is, when a user first
uploads an image it is displayed in the view but not ''saved'' until they
click the ''Save'' button on the form. I want to display an error
message/disable the ''Save'' button if the file they just

Problem With url_for_file_column/file_column
I am using the very helpful file_column extension in my app.
The uploading portion works great - no problems.
Where I am having an issue is displaying the images in my view. My code
looks like this:

file_column, ActionMailer, and tests
Hi,
Say I have a model Event that has a file_column called ''pdf''.
I want to send out emails that contain the URL for the pdf file that''s
associated with the Event. I also want to test the emails, so I''d
need to be able to get at the URL for the pdf inside my unit tests.
I don''t see how I can use url_for_file_column in this situation.

partials and instance variables for file_column
Hi,
Sebastian Kanthak of the file_column-Plugin wrote once:
"is the photo object inside a local variable or an instance variable
(e.g. photo or @photo)? url_for_file_column only works with instance
variables, like all other active record form helpers. Could this be
the problem?"
So I''m using file_column in a partial, e.g.

file_column - url_for_file_column issue.
Hi,
url_for_file_column @variable, ''name'', takes an instance variable. My
question is, what if I don''t want to have to retrieve the instance variable
every single time but I have the image id, along with its name with me.
Could I contruct that object in a view and pass it to url_for_file_column:
