So having just learned how to do has_many :through as opposed to HABTM, and then, being concerned that I wouldn''t get it to work, I started thinking about these two approaches. It seems to me that the _only_ problem that the HM:T (has_many :through) approach solves that HABTM doesn''t is the issue of the potential collision of id columns between your join table and one of

I just saw a mention here of LoginEngine, which I hadn''t heard of before. Last week when I was digging for user-account sample code for my web-app, I instead found the LoginGenerator and started using that: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/LoginGenerator Is one of these preferred over the other? From skimming the API docs, it does seem that LoginEngine has more features,

All, I''ve come across a confusing problem when attempting to run unit tests for an application on OSX (works on Windows). I''m receiving the following error: `load_specification'': undefined method `parse'' for Time:Class (NoMethodError) This is also confusing because I can''t figure out how the error appeared. When I revert back to previous revisions,

can anyone tell me how to call link_to from within a model class? I''m trying to do something like the following: validates_uniqueness_of :email, :message => "address has already been taken. If you''ve forgotten your password, please click " + link_to(''here'', :action => ''forgot_password'', :controller =>

Does anyone have any recommendations for working with zip code distance ranges? I need to calculate the distances between US zip codes.

Hi List, I have a table that contains several fields that must be initialized when first created, but may not be altered afterwards (when updating the other fields) because they can be changed by external processes. I noticed that the ActiveRecord update commands (even update_attribute) only seem to work by loading the complete record, changing fields that need to be changed and doing a full

Hi List! May I tap into your combined common sense ? I have a legacy logging app that needs to be modernized. At the moment, Data is going to be stored in 5 tables, one table is going to contain more than 200 million and 2 others about 60 million rows. Mysql will be used, unless someone sees a major advantage in using something else (at the moment data is stored in a raw positioned file format,

Slowly figuring out how to get my SaltedHashLoginGenerator stuff working. The wiki page says to put "before_filter :login_required" in the user (my "user" is "member") controller or in ApplicationController. However, wherever I put it I get NoMethodError. The rest of the SHLG stuff seems to be working... or at least I could get to the signup page, register, and

Reviews Wanted. I''ve read the tables of contents and haven''t yet made up my mind. Is one book clearly better than the other? Is one clearly full of bugs? Is one so much further ahead that there is no choice? Are they both so incomplete that I should just wait and only cook real food? Do trains still have dining cars?

Lets say you had a pretty decent job, but your company mandated use of emacs. The poaching employer offers you a free copy of Textmate(tm). Would you jump ship solely in order to use Textmate at company B? Cheers, Dave -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

What wysiwyg html/CSS editors do people recommend. I''m mainly interested in FOSS programs that I can run on WinXP. Sometimes you just have to create some mostly-static pages and make them look nice. I see that Guy Kawasaki is using Nvu, which is based on Mozilla composer. Any of you guys have any experience with that? Warren Fred -------------- next part -------------- An HTML

Hi, I''m trying to figure out the best way to protect images uploaded by users who may wish to keep them private. For example, if they are uploaded in the default file_column location (/public/blah/blah/1/) then someone can simply type the URL http://www.blah.com/blah/blah/1 and get the image. I can store the images in a non-public directory in the rails app (ie: /railsapp/images/X/)

Hi, everyone, I''m currently running a Rails 1.0 project using lighttpd-1.4.9 behind Apache 2 on RHEL 3. My fcgi process (I''m only using one right now) always hangs after some time, which is something I haven''t experienced before (e.g., I''ve run this same app. on a TextDrive account and it works fine there). So ... any ideas on what could be causing this?

GAH! Here is the firefox behavior, which is perfect: 1) View page 1 2) Update some text by using link_to_remote or remote_form_for, along with an RJS replace or replace_html 3) Navigate to page 2 4) Hit back 5) Page was cached with dom updates, note that the page is show in the same state as it was left Safari 3.0 behavior 1..4) repeat 5) Page reloads, ending up in the state where it was left

The agile book says "You can inspect variables, set values, add other breakpoints, and generally have a good time". This is very sweet and totally useless. For example, I want to see the session variable, the cookies variable and so on. These names are unknown. I think I guess that the things that are available depend on where you put the breakpoint() call. I''ve tried a

The Agile book seems to say I should specify this as follows, probably in the environments.rb: ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS[:database_manager] = CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore BUT the environments.rb file would have me Un-Comment this: config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store Anyway, I''ve tried both, and in both cases it

Hi, I am using salted hash login generator to create my login page. In the user_environment.rb file, I saw that there is a comment saying should NOT include the email field in the changeable user fields array. Does anyone know why? > # Add all changeable user fields to this array. > # They will then be able to be edited from the edit action. You > # should NOT include the

After being frustrated (yet again) last week when attempting to use the salted_login_generator in a new rails project, I have modified it so that it works better for my needs. Since the SaltedHashLoginGenerator wiki page seems to indicate many people are frustrated by this package which is very nice but has been broken since rails 1.1.4 I think, I have gem-ified my version of the generator and

The domain registration companies are pushing an add-on called ''Private Registration'' where they keep your email and other personal info secret to prevent spam. Is this a good deal? Is it needed? Do you have it? Do you wish you did? Warren -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
