similar to: current_page?()

Hi. I swear I found this in the group archives, but now I cannot find this in the group or elsewhere online! In a view I would like to get the current controller name and action that was used to get here. For example, I have a template that I''m using from two different controllers (and four different actions in each controller), such as :controller => "my_view", :action

Is there any easy way of using something like current_page? method from ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper inside controller ?

Hiall, I want to make an image_tag from within a controller in order to be able to present a link (with a status image) in a view.

Hi all, I''m in the process of creating rspecs for my helpers. One of the helpers in app/helpers/application_helper.rb looks like this: def page_name @page_name || "Define @page_name in #{controller.controller_name}::#{controller.action_name}" end The rspec is simply: it "should something" do page_name end

I am attempting to integrate a main navigation section into my web application. Naturally the easiest and DRY way to do this would be to either include it in a layout, or as a partial. The only problem is that I want the link for the current page to have its own css id ("current"). The only way I can think to accomplish this is to just include the navigation in every page, but this is

Hey all, I''m seeing a strange behavior in my spec that I can''t account for. I''ve got a route that looks like this: map.writing \ ''/writing'', :controller => ''abstracts'', :action => ''index'', :index => { :select => ''all'' } and I have template code that looks like this: <br

Question for you all is it possible to use an action in an if statement? I am using the same form for edit and new and I have a cancel button on the page. This cancel button is built with an if statement that looks right now to see if a parameter exists to define where to go back to if the user cancel. The problem occurs when the user submits the form and there are missing fields by

I''m writing a Rails plugin that builds up a menu in a view. I''m using *link`_`to* to build the link and *current_page?* to set class="active" on the current page. I''ve *include*d *ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper* so I can use *link`_`to*. To get *current`_`page?* working in the view, I''ve had to inherit the current class (apparently ActionView::Base)

I''m using bundled_resource, login_engine, and a few other plugins. It appears Rails considers plugins in alphabetic order. Turns out that there is a particular order that will work and alphabetic ain''t it. The login engine must be loaded first. Bundled resource then includes ''application_helper'' and the application helper includes LoginEngine. If

I attached a rails helper implementation of the fb_table described here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Facebook_Styles I included testing and comments. I hope you find it useful. Curiously, it''s really a small extension of FBML. Richard -------------- next part -------------- Index: test/rails_integration_test.rb

Hi, I have some named routes defined e.g. map.public and wish to use link_to_unless_current() to disable link. However, as I''ve seen from forum discussions and the API doc, the issue lies with the fact that the named_route_url() method generated by a named route does not default to only_path = true like url_for. Therefore, the current_page? within link_to_unless_current() will not
