similar to: Noob - port 3000 in URL''s - get rid of it?

Hi, Noob here. One problem faced by developers of active content is making sure that the final results of their magic result in URL''s that Google and other search engines are comfortable with. Otherwise, your content won''t ever get spydered and indexed and ultimately returned in a google user''s results pages. In reading the agile rails book, it seems that the

Hi, I''m currently learning Ruby on Rails using "Agile Web Development with Rails." I am using RadRails as my development environment. Everything has been going along well, until the end of chapter 7. Just before the end of the chapter, we set up our store pages so that they can be styled with the depot.css stylesheet. This is where I run into my problem. The stylesheet

Total Ruby Noob here. Just in the throws of reading the books and choosing an isp for my server etc. If you are developing a "one-off" rails app with the intent of using it on an isp hosted server, would it normally work better to develop and debug the thing locally (like on a Mac for instance), and then go through a round of "move it to the server and retest everything there

Hi, I''m completely new to all of this. Not even certain this is an appropriate forum for an installation question. I''m just about to plunk down some money to get a virtual server. In looking over the list of isp''s elsewhere on this site, goDaddy isn''t mentioned - probably because they don''t offer rails as a standard distribution. There are some

Can I get some opinions on which free DB to use with rails for a virtual server that will eventually be doing lots of heavy database lifting? Not a lot of heavy duty querying per se. Think multiple simultaneous forums and blog sites and the like. I know each of the different DB possibilities such as MySQL and PostgreSQL has plus points and minus points. I''m particularly interested

The ''Agile Web'' book says that you can iterate over a list of children as so: order.line-items.each do |li| etc... This is fine when you need then all consecuitvely, but I need to pull the first one for the top of the page and still list all at the bottom. So, the question is: How do I reference the first item (child) directly? Thanks Lance F. Squire -- Posted via

Hi, I was wondering if some of you have had to keep more than one version of Rails on your machine at a time? If you have more than one customer, they may have different requirements. You might need to work on a pre-existing app that is not scheduled to be moved to a newer version of Rails right now. How is the best way to deal with this? thanks, jp -- Posted via

Hi, Nuby on Rails here trying to bring up an existing app on a new installation. The whole ruby/rails/mysql/lighty installation was done per the much touted "hivelogic article" that runs through all the steps. I am running into a permission error when I try to do a rake migrate to set up a session database needed by this existing app. Extracted from the trace... ** Execute

Given two models: User :name :email :address_id # foreign key Address :line_1 :line_2 :city etc. I want to have a form allowing a user to register, in which she''d enter an address as well, but how do I go about combining both objects into the one form? I''m new to this and following along with the Agile Rails book from the Pragmatic Programmers, but it

Okay, I''ve worked through the tutorial in 2nd ed. Agile Dev book. And I think I understand the methods concerning user management; however, when I use :method => :post in my app, I get a link of the following variety: <li><a href="/login/delete_user/2" method="post" onclick="return confirm(''Really delete

Well, I understand what they do and how, I just don''t get why! It seems to me that any time you would have this relationship between two tables...they should be one table! Agile Rails book gives what seems to me to be a lame example for this. They use the example of an "invoice" and an "order". An invoice belongs to an order and an order has one invoice. Seems

Help. I recently switched over to linux (because windows sucks). I love linux, but i need some windows apps to run, (like iTunes), so I installed Wine... however, I am used tot he old windows filesystem and not the linux one, and I can't find the .wine directory. I thought it should be under "filesystem," right? But it's not... Can anyone tell me where my .wine dir might be?

Im completly new to the whole PBX thing. I have a toshiba unit now and we're moving our office in the next few months. I want to use asterisk but would like to test it out first. Does it support a basic analog phone line like the one in my house? Is that FXS? Are there any FAQs I should read to learn more?

Hello, I''m having a problem utilizing the find_all method with a value from a form. I keep getting the following error: Mysql::Error: #42S22Unknown column ''category_id11'' in ''where clause'': SELECT * FROM items WHERE (category_id11) The controller seems to be getting the correct data, but my key and value seem to be mashed together(it''s

OK, I'm a noob to Wine. I've figured some stuff out with Wine and it sees everything I want it to see just fine. OK, I understand why you don't want Wine to see your windows install, but I put all my program installs on a separate partition. Now with this in mind can I just have Wine look at my Program Files and run my apps from there, or do I have to reinstall all the apps I want

I''ve been mostly lurking here with an occasional nuby question for a few weeks now. It seems like Ruby and Rails and the many libraries and tools growing up around it are a remarkable toolset. Unfortunately I''m finding the whole enchilada a bit daunting. It seems that if one is to truly tap into the power of this thing and do a significant amount of developing, one needs

When you put up a page with a form on it and the top item is a text field it would be nice to have that field already focused instead of forcing the user to click in it before they start typing. Is there a rails (i.e. probably Prototype) way of giving focus to a field? I did some searching and found nothing. thanks, jp P.S. I''m on a Mac. Perhaps a winoze and/or unix automatically
