similar to: erb and builder in same view ....

Hi All I just finished writing up a tutorial relating my experience developing a system to edit line-items ''in-line'' in my Rails application using XMLHttpRequest. I thought this might be of interest to some readers of this list... Check it out at http://hieraki.goodlad.ca/read/book/1 Thanks!

Hi all I''ve started using some of the scriptaculous effects here, and have noticed something weird. Whenever I use one of the effects, it causes many of the fonts on the same page to rendered with a lighter weight (ie: "less bold"). Has anyone else noticed a similar effect in Firefox? I use 1.5b1 on Mac. This seems to be a common bug in moz-based browsers, as Camino does

Hi, I am relatively new to Rails and I can''t get the following to work: what I am trying to do is to make the first item of a list to flash: var item = $(''items'').firstChild; new Effect.Highlight(item); I get the this Javascript error message: this._base has no child (effects.js, line 445) But I am able to do this without any problems: var item =

Hi All I am just adding some basic e-mail notices to my Rails app using ActionMailer, and have one small issue. I want to provide a confirmation URL to users who sign up for an account. I can obviously just hardcode the URL and append the confirmation code to it, but I''d much rather be able to use something like: url_for(:controller => ''authentication'', :action

In my RJS template this works: page.visual_effect :highlight, "test#{@test.id}", {:duration => 5} but not this: page.visual_effect :highlight, "test#{@test.id}", {:duration => 5, :startcolor => "#FFFFFF"} Am I misunderstanding how to pass in additional parameters? _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list

Hi all, Is there a way to invoke validations at times other than save, create and update? I know that I can do this by writing my own validation checks using errors.add_[blah], but I''d like to leverage the existing validation code. What I have is two sets of fields in a record, set A and set B. Both sets must be validated on record create. However, the trouble is that after

Hi all I am trying to get VMX guests working on my new server here. The machine has a Pentium D 920 on an ASUS P5WD2-E motherboard. I''ve updated the BIOS to the latest 0401, which added the virtualization option. I am running a fresh installation of Gentoo (64-bit). When I try and run ''xm create'' on a vmx config file, I get the following error: Error: Error

Hi All I''m having some problems running my view specs when using simply_helpful. I have it semi-working via the following: module SimplyHelpfulHelper def self.included(base) base.send :include, SimplyHelpful::RecordIdentificationHelper base.send :include, SimplyHelpful::RecordTagHelper end end context "The index template" do setup do @shift =

Hi, I want to use my some session data when I validate som data in the model. The specific problem I have is that I present different forms data based on gender, and then dependent of the gender, there''s different fields that needs validation. I''m wondering what''s the preffered way of doing this. The session data is not present in the model, i.e: class Myclass

Hi All I''m working on converting some existing controller specs to use mocks and stubs rather than real ActiveRecord objects in a Rails project. In one of my controller actions, I use a database transaction. So, the obvious thing to do is have this in my setup block: Project.stub!(:transaction) Firstly, is there an easy way to have that stub yield to the block passed to any

I''m hand editing my .css and .rhtml files using SciTE and hitting refresh in my browser to see the results - its slow going. What tools are people using to author their .css and .rhtml files?

I have a piece of code that "waits" for body onload. Every 30ms, it tests $(''body''). Seems that isn''t always good enough. I''ve hit situations where the DOM is "partially" loaded somehow. I fixed matters by setting a global flag... <body onload="bodyLoaded=true;"> which provides a better test... of course I could

I vote for spec''ing. Anybody else?

Hi everyone I''m building an app in which quite a bit of data is dependant on dates (and times), and I have logic that depends on when ''today'' is. I''m trying to get some better functional tests written, and am unsure of the best way to approach it. The problem is that I want the tests to run against the same data every time, whether I run it on Tuesday or

Greetings, I''m a newby to both "R"s in RoR. I would like to use Builder::XmlMarkup to generate my pages. If there is a working downloadable example somewhere, that would probably be enough. Otherwise, here''s what I want to do: With the following controller: class AccountsController < ApplicationController layout ''accounts'' model :account

hi all, I am having a hard time trying to find out what''s wrong with my setup. It used to work smoothly until I decided out of the blue to do a selfupdate and upgrade outdated on MacPort, then things started going south very quickily. Since MacPort kinda broke, I pull it all out and re-install the ports I have before, which went pretty smoothly. Then to my surprise any command I

Hi, I have the following assert_equal that is returning false. @q seems to be returning niil, but is set in the controller, how can I get hold of this value in my tests? assert_equal ''derby'', @q Thanks Mark -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

I am using rxml to produce opml files and need to escape ampersands in the attributes. builder 2.0 docs found at http://builder.rubyforge.org/ show the following xml = Builder::XmlMarkup.new xml.sample(:escaped=>"This&That", :unescaped=>:"Here&amp;There") xml.target! => <sample escaped="This&amp;That"

The first problem is that if you make a builder or .rxml file it always displays as xml in a browser. declare! it and the browser gives and error and if you change rxml to rhtml then it thinks you should be making erb. SO quetion #1 is how do I make builder files render in the browser as html. The next thing that I want to be able to do is be able to render parcials or call other files of other
