[zerogy]

Thanks for your replying.
the page render correctly since i would visit it via browser, and it

_footer.html.erb:
div id=footer-wrap
  div id=footer
  div class=bottom-links
div class=bottom-nav
  ul
lia href=About Us/a/li
lia href=Privacy/a/li
lia href=Contact Us/a/li
lia href=Help/a/li
  /ul
/div
  /div
  /div
/div

and each error has same informationm which is wrong number of
arguments (3 for 1)

[Rails] Re: Download Movie through link

[MaD]

alright, then let's take a look at your code...
how does it work? do you store your files in a folder inside your
public-directory and filename points to that location? or do you store
your files inside your database? what exactly is Movie.file and
Movie.filename?

the following line throws me off (don't understand it):
  render :text = @movie.file

what could help is a look at send_file:
http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/Streaming.html#M000401

or even the improvement x_send_file:
  http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoSendFilesFast

 The question is: Why is Rails looking for a key called EMPLOYEE_ID

You probably need to define the foreign key in the has_one  
relationship too.

As i understand you want application popup on link to download. if yes ? 
then set content-type as application.

eg :  @headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/force-download'

[Rails] Re: rspec test cannot be passed when render partial in layout

[zerogy]

i just do not know which method is called with 3 arguments instead of
1, so i could not solve the problem.
and i pasted the relevant code below:
routes.rb:
...
map.resources :users, :member = { :suspend = :get, :unsuspend
= :get }

users_controller.rb:
...
  # render new.rhtml
  def new
@user = User.new
  end

users_controller_spec.rb:
   ...
  describe named routing do
before(:each) do
get :new
end
it should route new_user_path() to /users/new do
  new_user_path().should == /users/new
end
end

new.html.erb:
div class=page-title
h1Sign up as a new user/h1/div

% @user.password = @user.password_confirmation = nil %
div id=signup-area
  div class=left
  % if flash[:error] %
div id=error
  %= flash[:error] %
/div
  % end %
  % form_for :user, :url = users_path, :html = {:class =
'bigform'} do |f| -%
div class=textfields
  div class=clearfix%= label_tag 'login' %
  %= f.text_field :login, :class=text %%= error_message_on
user, login %/div

  div class=clearfix%= label_tag 'email' %
  %= f.text_field :email, :class=text %
  %= error_message_on user, email %/div

  div class=clearfix%= label_tag 'password' %
  %= f.password_field :password, :class=text %
  %= error_message_on user, password %/div

well, the error-message is pretty clear:

@photo seems to be nil. the reason for it can be found in your

[Rails] routes

[bingo bob]

I'm trying to figure this.

in my schools controller i want to do this


  # implement a create action to create just the review for the
School...
  def create_review_for_a_school

@review = Review.new
@school = School.find(params[:school_id])
@review = @school.reviews.build(params[:review])

if @review.save # The creation workeddo this

   flash[:notice] = 'Review was successfully updated.'
   format.html { redirect_to(@school) }
   # format.xml  { head :ok }

else # if it didnt save do this...
   format.html { render :action = show }
end

  end


as a result I think i need a route...something like this

map.connect '/schools/:school_id/reviews/new', :controller = 'schools',
:action = 'create_review_for_a_school'

and also my form submit button for creating a review - how should that
look ?

I guess like this...

% form_for [...@school, Review.new] do |f| %


--

But it's still going to the reviews new action I'd like it to go to the
def create_review_for_a_school action?


any tips?

 My second Question is, Where are the config files to tell RoR to use

 I can setup the paths in for my MySQL db?

[Rails] Questions about Sassy, the recurring payment system

[Zac Zheng]

Hi Alex,

I read about your Sassy release on LRUG's mailing list sometime ago. Now
that I need to implement an ecommerce subscription system for a client,
I have been delving into your code.

I have a few questions if you don't mind answering. I thought I would
post on here for the benefit of others.

Where are you using Sassy and is it in a production environment?

Do you know of anybody using Sassy?

I enjoyed reading your code by the way. It's very well written. Also,
much thanks for releasing it:)

Regards,
Zac

Well I'm not sure how you'd do it in development, but in the real

[Rails] Re: Multiple associations with to_json

Hi,

I am facing the same problem and looks like the following construction
works:

booking..to_json(:include = {:booking_state = {}, :customer =

Not as clean and nice as the expected though:

booking..to_json(:include = [:booking_state, {:customer = {include
= :customer_phones}}])

So I thought better to share

 Have you found a solution for this problem? I am continually running

 multiple associations that exist at the same level (let's call them
 siblings) with one of them requiring a hash either to further traverse
 down to get deeper associations with a nested :include or when needing
 to specify other options on one of the siblings to qualify one of the
 :methods, :only or :except options.

 Please advise if you have found a solution to this issue?

[Rails] Re: Trying to make this application RESTy

[Krishna Sankar (ksankar)]

I think there are two ways of looking at this:

a)  Set of Orders. Then 2) and 3) are nothing but edit on an order.
b)  Set of lines. Then 2) and 3) are index lines with a find clause
(for example find unassigned lines or find unrecorded lines) and then
edit on an individual line.

HTH.

|Subject: [Rails] Trying to make this application RESTy
|
|
|Ok, here's the basic workflow:
|
|1) A user inputs an order for a customer.  This consists of several
|line items of equipment rental. (So, for example, 3 trucks at 7 am,
|7:30, and 8am for June 23). (Ok, this part is easy... a standard Order
|resource with the usual CRUD actions)
|
|2) A user (may be the same as #1, or may not) must fulfill the order,
|so he must be able to pull up a list of unassigned work (for a
|particular day, for example), see this work is still unassigned and
|assign 3 trucks to this job.  (This is where things get fuzzy.  Is
|this specialized index action on Order?  I don't think so because
|we're editing the orders, not just listing them.  Is this a separate
|resource?)
|
|3) A user (may be the same, may not) must later go back and fill out
|the hours the trucks actually worked, so they must first be able to
|pull up a list of all work which has been completed to date and see
|this work has been assigned but not yet recorded.  (Same problem... is
|this another resource, or another view on the resource in number 2?)

[Rails] Re: setting up remote rails

[MaD]

1
you might want to configure your apache (or whatever webserver you
use) to forward your mongrel on port 3000.
look for something like this (for your webserver and operation
system):
http://schwuk.com/articles/2006/06/13/hosting-rails-applications-with-mongrel-apache-2-mod_proxy-on-debian-stable

2
as long as your database.yml is configured correctly you only need to
make sure that you have sufficient rights to access that database. run
  mysql -uroot -ppassword
and adjust settings (e.g. create database, grant access for chosen
user,...)

[Rails] Re: Refactoring RJS

 Hi Fred, thanks so much for your response, that is exactly what I was

I mean that you can torture yourself for a long time trying to  
convince rjs to do something whereas you could get it done quicker  
(and probably end up with nicer results) just be writing the JS. Sure  
you'll need to spend a bit of time getting familiar with javascript  
and prototype/jquery/whatever library you end up using but it will be  
worth it in the long run


  What
 do you mean by rewriting the whole thing as a js function.  You mean
 just something like resetVisibility() and then just reset both the
 end_drop and start_drop elements within the resetVisibility function?

replace the whole rjs block by a call to a function that looked  
something like


function do_it(element_to_slide, end_drop_element, start_drop_element){
   new Effect.SlideDown(element_to_slide, {
afterFinish: function(){
resetVisibility(end_drop_element);
resetVisibility(start_drop_element);
});
}

 Thanks for your help, Dave

 I have some RJS that could use some refactoring.  I use the function

 [:day]}, :afterFinish = function(){
$('end_drop_#{params[:day]}_#{params
 [:appt_counter]}').style.display = 'block';
$('end_drop_#{params[:day]}_#{params

$('start_drop_#{params[:day]}_#{params

$('start_drop_#{params[:day]}_#{params
 [:appt_counter]}').style.visibility = 'hidden';
  }

 Yummy :-). if you're using prototype you can replace

 $('end_drop_foo').style.display = 'block';
 $('end_drop_foo').style.visibility = 'hidden';

 with

 $('end_drop_foo').setStyle({display: 'block', visibility: 'hidden'})

 If i were you I'd have in my application.js a function like

 function resetVisibility(element){
element.setStyle({display: 'block', visibility: 'hidden'})

 }

 then then your rjs stuff looks like

 resetVisibility('end_drop_#{params[:day]}_#{params[:appt_counter]}')
 resetVisibility 
 ('start_drop_#{params[:day]}_#{params[:appt_counter]}')

 or even right the whole thing as a js function (RJS can be a bit of a
 crutch)

[Rails] Re: bundle_fu making my app very slow

[Mukund]

Use Rails in-built caching instead.  If you want to use bundle_fu to
obfuscate your scripts, then you need to note that it will take a long
time the first time the server is run for doing the caching.
Subsequent requests will be faster.

Regards,
Mukund

 It's not always 1800 but most of the time.

 Is this ok? Shouldn't I turn some caching in bundle_fu to on?

[Rails] named_scope and having?

[Gabriele Tassoni]

Hi all,
is just my fault.. or I can't write an having caluse for a group in a
named scope? °_°

i.e.

named_scope :last_year_best_buyers, :joins = :invoices, :conditions
= {invoices.closed = true, invoices.issued_on =
1.years.ago..Date.today}, :group = customers.id, :having = SUM
(invoices.taxable_income)  15000

Calling Customer.last_year_best_buyers, leads to a:

ArgumentError: Unknown key(s): having

How can I specify an having clause (the only way I know to filter
results using aggregate functions, ain't it)?

thanks

Well... I always can specify it on the group clause.. but it doesn't
look so clean to me (esp. since the find method has the having
clause... °_°)

named_scope :last_year_best_buyers, :joins = :invoices, :conditions
= {invoices.closed = true, invoices.issued_on =
1.years.ago..Date.today}, :group = customers.id HAVING SUM
(invoices.taxable_income)  15000

Another problem with having to specify the HAVING in the group key..
is that it looks like it would lead to errors when sequencing multiple
named_scopes, i.e.:

Customer.last_year_best_buyers.with_active_account

But I have to investigate more on this...

[Rails] Should I sleep here?

[Gavin]

Hi

I'm building an app at the moment where specific items can be added to
an order and then purchased through paypal.

Becuase the items are limited, it's important to relist them quickly
if the order is not completed within 5mins.

Anybody have any suggestions as to how I could go about this?

I was thinking of creating an observer for orders and including an
after_create like so:

Class OrderObserver  ActiveRecord::Observer

def after_create
  sleep 300 # sleep for 5 mins
  if self.status  3 # anything above 3 should be saved
return
  else
self.items.each do |item|
  item.update_attribute :order_id, nil
end
self.destroy
  end
end

Is there a better or a standard way of doing this though?

take a look at backgrounDRb. maybe this could be an option for you.
http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/

in a background process you could sleep for as long as you want to,
but if you try that in your main process your application might freeze
for that amount of time.

[Rails] Common action for all the controllers.

[Siddick Ebramsha]

I am writing a small plugin for ruby on Rails. I faced a problem while
create a common action for all the controllers.  I found a solution for
it, But i am not satisfied with the solution.

The solution that I got is :-

ActionController::Base.class_eval do
  def common_action
render :text = hai
  end

  def action_init
  self.class.action_methods.add common_action
  end

  before_filter :action_init

end



If you have any alternate solution, please provide.

another possibility is to have a cron job or daemon that checks for  
orders that have been waiting for too long (stick a expires_at column

[Rails] Re: Pass variables inside the page

[Mathieu Rousseau]

well, you can submit a classic form request and reload the whole page, or
submit an ajax request and then update just a part of your page. I think
that you should decide what you want do, then hack this solution. Not decide
what you want to do because it seems simpler to do.

[Rails] Re: Opening file content into a textarea

[elioncho]

Many thanks MaD, I'll try it out.

On Feb 12, 2:55 am, MaD mayer.domi...@gmail.com wrote:
 in ruby there is the class File:http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/classes/File.html

 to get the contents of your file try something like:
   my_file = File.new(path_to_file, 'r')
   @my_file_content = my_file.read
   my_file.close

 now you can show your content inside the text area (you should know
 how to build a simple form for it).

 after editing it, back in your controller write the updated contents
 to the file:
   updated_content = params[:whatever]
   my_file = File.new(path_to_file, 'w')
   my_file.write(updated_content)

[Rails] Re: ROXML from_xml not returning an object instance...

[Ben Woosley]

Alright, I found that this actually required a bit more to work
properly, but if you look at my latest code: 
http://github.com/Empact/roxml/tree/master,
I have a examples/active_record.rb, and spec/examples/active_record.rb
to show it's working properly.

So install this latest version from my github and you should have
things working.  See the history:
http://github.com/Empact/roxml/blob/a2434d5c14a31ec2099c38a6248b4fcf4e5f5565/History.txt
for the changes involved.

You should also get some deprecation warnings from this newest code.
I'm preparing for a bit of an API shakeup in 3.0 which should be the
last.  In short, all type declaration come via the :as parameter, all
location declarations come via :from and :in, all options come as
separate arguments.  The rdocs should be up to date on this.

On Feb 5, 1:42 am, Ben Woosley ben.woos...@gmail.com wrote:
 Alright, the problem seems to be thatROXMLuses the Object#allocate
 to generate objects, and never calls #initialize on those objects,
 owing to the fact that you would want to initialize differently in a
 world where your attributes are already initialized than in one where
 they are not (which is the base #new case).  There's a workaround
 though, which I haven't tested but which will definitely solve the
 immediate problem.  That is to implement the #xml_initialize method on
 your objects, and in it, call the regular #initialize, like so:

 class RoxmlClass  ActiveRecord::Base
   includeROXML
   def self.xml_initialize
     initialize
   end
 end

 #xml_initialize (http://roxml.rubyforge.org/rdoc/classes/ROXML/
 InstanceMethods/Construction.html#M10) is called at the end of
 #from_xml, and can be used to do things like call initialize with the
 data from your xml attributes, or whatever else.

 Hope that helps, and I'll have something which handles this in a
 general way out in the near future.  Feel free to contact me directly
 in the future.  You'll find my email on the 
 website:http://empact.github.com/roxml/

[Rails] Re: Common action for all the controllers.

[Ar Chron]

 If you have any alternate solution, please provide.

I didn't go the plugin route in our application, but opted for a form of 
behavior by convention

class GenericController  ApplicationController
  # here's the standard index method
  def index
blah blah blah
  end

  # here's a new common method for all controllers
  def common_action
moo moo moo
  end
end

class Project  GenericController
  # inherits the common_action action

  # and if need be (if Project truly needs behavior different from
  # the 'standard' we have for our app
  def index
# non-standard behavior for this class
blah blah blah
  end
end

I would recommend against this use of magic numbers, such as 3 in 
this case. The number 3 has no meaning here. I would recommend that you 
use something like a finite state machine.

There is a Ruby gem implementation of this:

Now the same line of code can be written as:
if self.completed?

Now there is no ambiguity on the meaning of some magic number. The

So, would it be more appropriate to write a method like

and then call the purchased? method to perform the check?

[Rails] acts_as_list sort by multiple items

[Tod Mcintyre]

I have a Person model and I'm using acts_as_list so I can have drag/drop
positioning of people.  The only thing is, I want to be able to
differentiate between male and female, ie. sort males separately from
females.  It seems completely useless to have two separate models since
all the other attributes of a person are the same (name, address etc)
Does acts_as_list allow ordering by, say, position and sex?

In writing this, I also just thought, maybe I can create a person model
and have a male/female model extend from this with attribute sex, then
use acts_as_list on the male/female model.  I'm not sure i would know
how to design the db for that.

Any thoughts on this?

Actually it could be as simple as adding some constants to represent

Example:
STARTED = 1
PROCESSING = 2
COMPLETED = 3
BILLED = 4
PAID = 5

if self.state  COMPLETED

You just want to avoid the use of a magic number by giving it clear

The Ajax.Autocompleter would definitely work for your auto-complete text 
field so that's not an issue. What will be the challenge in your case 
will be the server-side action that builds the unordered list that will 
contain the locations.

http://wiki.github.com/madrobby/scriptaculous/ajax-autocompleter

All that's expected from the server-side action is that it returns an 
unordered list. How you build that is up to you. What might be tricky in 
your case is getting decent performance.

What do you mean by locations? The Earth has effectively infinite 
locations. And even if you talking about named locations, in the sense 
they can be searched for in Google Maps, the number of them is extremely 
large. If you're expecting that when the user type A every location 
from Google Maps that start with A gets returned in a list, I don't 
think you'll find that. I could be wrong, but I think that if it was 
that simple Google Maps would provide that sort of auto-completion.

[Rails] Logging all exceptions

[koopmann.lenn...@googlemail.com]

Hey everyody,

what is the best way to log _all_ exceptions that are thrown in my
Rails application into a database table? I need some kind of hook in
the Rails exception methods?!

I already tried the Exception Logger plugin but that is not what I
want.

I just want to log _all_ exceptions into a database table without
needing to call own methods everywhere I expect an exception.

Thank you!

[Rails] Help for ActionMailer!

[klaus.kohlbauer]

Hello,

I have a big problem und hoping for your help.

In my application a user should be able to edit an email template file
for himself and send it out e.g. to a customer. (thats the plan).

For that I have created some functionality to edit the template file
and an ActionMailer class with a method called 'createMail'. The user
is editing the template file, saves the file and then he is sending
the mail to the customer. Thats working fine. But now the user is
making changes on the template file and he wants to send it out
again.  And now my problem comes up. The result of createMail() is the
same as it was for the first time. The changes, the user has made in
the template file are not in the created email.

I think that has something to do with caching. Because all is working
well in the development environment but not in production.

Is there anyone who can help. Is there a possibility to force the
system to use the newer version of the template file and not to be
'proud' of an old file.

If I can get any help you will get an invitation to the octoberfest in
munich/bavaria/germany later this year :)

Best regards
Klaus Kohlbauer

 the mail to the customer. Thats working fine. But now the user is
 making changes on the template file and he wants to send it out
 again.  And now my problem comes up. The result of createMail() is the
 same as it was for the first time. The changes, the user has made in
 the template file are not in the created email.

 I think that has something to do with caching. Because all is working
 well in the development environment but not in production.

You might be interested in 
http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-core/browse_thread/thread/1119127159435e5c
They're talking about actioncontroller views rather than actionmailer
views but it's all the same really.

What I've done in the past is just sidestep this completely with a
mailer method like this:

  def standard_email(recipient, template)
setup_common(recipient)
@subject = template.subject
@body = Liquid::Template.parse(template.body).render({})
  end

template is an activerecord object holding the body, subject etc. of
the message. I happened to use Liquid to render the message, but
that's up to you. You could read templates from disk rather than from
database.

When I create a table and corresponding sequence manually, why scaffold

When I do

 this , it creates the views well.
Do I need to give the script a hint regarding the tables fields ?

[Rails] Easy RoR - Javascript syntax question

[Tom Ha]

Hi there,

a simple n00b question:

I have that Javascript snippet on my page (see below; taken from jquery,
actually).

I want to pass it the @cities array from the controller. But what's
the correct syntax, here?

See the 3rd line:



script
  $(document).ready(function(){
var data = @cities;    that's not correct, is it?
$(#city).autocomplete(data);
  });
/script



Thanks a lot for helping me!

 |7:30, and 8am for June 23). (Ok, this part is easy... a standard Order
 |resource with the usual CRUD actions)
 |
 |2) A user (may be the same as #1, or may not) must fulfill the order,
 |so he must be able to pull up a list of unassigned work (for a
 |particular day, for example), see this work is still unassigned and
 |assign 3 trucks to this job.  (This is where things get fuzzy.  Is
 |this specialized index action on Order?  I don't think so because

 |
 |3) A user (may be the same, may not) must later go back and fill out

 |pull up a list of all work which has been completed to date and see

 Have you also overridden respond_to?

I played around with overriding respond_to?, and figured out how to
make this all work.  Apparently, in Rails 2.2, if respond_to? returns
false, method_missing gets called on the association proxy instead of
the base class.  Although, I have to wonder if there's a better way to
accomplish this than through method_missing.  Maybe there's some way
to loop through all attributes and call alias_attribute dynamically
when classes are loaded?

Anyway, thanks for the help.

[Rails] Rails unixODBC

[andypflueger]

Hello,

I decided to embrace getting a new Rails application to see an
existing MSSQL database and trying to get unixODBC, freeTDS, and
ActiveRecord able to query my MSSQL database.

I'm following the procedure outlined at
http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoConnectToMicrosoftSQLServerFromRailsOnLinux
but my system (Ubuntu 8.10 - Intrepid Ibex, Rails 2.3, Ruby 1.8.7)
isn't cooperating.

I get as far as able to use 'sqsh' to test the server-side connection
and able to run SQL, but 'isql' or the IRB aren't able to access my
unixODBC DSN.

 Actually it could be as simple as adding some constants to represent
 your states.

 Example:
 STARTED = 1
 PROCESSING = 2
 COMPLETED = 3
 BILLED = 4
 PAID = 5

 if self.state  COMPLETED

 You just want to avoid the use of a magic number by giving it clear
 meaning.

[Rails] Trying to Wrap My Head Around HM:t and HABTM w/ a Sample App

[Josh Traxton]

I am cheap and in an attempt to learn about rails  relationships I'm
trying to create an application that my friends and I can use as a way
to split the cost of items we buy @ Costco.

Right now the models i have are:

User - Various people involved
Run - Represents Costco runs
Item - Individual items purchased during a Costco run


I was hoping that someone could point me in the right direction as to
how i setup up the relationships...

These are my models:

Item.rb
# An item is purchased on a run and it's cost can be split between many
Users.  Because many Users can split the cost of an Item, it is owned by
1 or more Users.
belongs_to :run
belongs_to :user


Run.rb
# A run is an individual trip to costco.  On a run many items are
purchased.
has_many :items


User.rb
# A User can participate in many runs and during the run will be buying
Items (or maybe buying a fraction of 1 item).
has_many :runs
has_many :items, :through = :participations #This is my area of
question



I realize this is incorrect as is, but could someone shed some light on
how i should be thinking about a situation like this?

Thanks for your time and for reading a big post like this ;)

[Rails] Re: Download Movie through link

[Jeremy Olliver]

I believe that the usual thing when sending files is to use the
webserver's filestreaming rather than rendering the file as text.

Try something like

send_file @movie.file_path, :disposition = :attachment

The disposition attachment option is actually set by default, but it
will provide the behavior you want of downloading, instead of trying
to open in the browser

  Hi MaD,

  Yes your understanding is correct as u mentioned in first.
  But I am able to open other videos on the net.

  I am a new I don't know why this link not prompt me(to download or

  but when I make a link of stored file it prompt correctly. So I thought
  some problem in my code.

  Please help me.

  Thanks

  As i understand you want application popup on link to download. if yes ?
  then set content-type as application.

  eg : �...@headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/force-download'

 Thanks Hitesh and MaD,

 I have changed the header content-type as 'application/force-download'.

 and It works.
 But when I click on open_with then It play movie on player as well as
 download also.
 even I remove force-download then also It download when I select
 open_with.

 can anybody have any idea?

 Thanks

[Rails] manually setting an auto-incremented primary key id

[Jamie Forrest]

I want to create a record with a manually-set custom ID, for instance:

Foo.create(:id = 8000, :name =bar)

But when I try to do that, Rails ignores the id I pass and continues
to auto-increment the id in the table. So in other words the console
output is along the lines of:

 Foo.find(:last)
= #Foo id: 52, name: foo
 Foo.create(:id = 8000, :name =bar)
= #Foo id: 53, name: bar

What's the best way around this? (By the way, after I insert this
record with the custom ID, I *do* want it to revert back to auto-
incrementing the id.)

yes, I realised I'll need to fill my data base with a bunch of

I'll have to do a parser to somehow retrieve that information. About
the plugin I would like to use jquery in my app, I found this plugin
http://github.com/chris/auto_complete_jquery/ but I noticed there is a
few more, is there some default in the community, or any big

[Rails] classic pagination with custom finders/sql

[Ball Balla]

Say I have a user model with the following

def active
 find(:all, :conditions = {:state = 'active'})
end

How can I get this working with classic pagination in my controller
without duplicating my logic for finding active users. ie, i do NOT
want to do this

def list
  @users = paginate(:users, :conditions = {:state = 'active'})
end

Is there anyway I can 'pull' the conditions out of the finder method?

Thanks Rick... I actually mentioned Liquid in my post. I was hoping

 Hi Phil,

 There is liquid:http://www.liquidmarkup.org/

 It is not pure HTML but allows user-editing of pages. It is used in the
 shopify product offering. I have never used it, however, the developers
 of it are well known and top notch folks.

 It may not be exactly what you're looking for, but food for thought.

One caveat however that bit me last week doing something similar when  
initializing some records in a new table.  PostgreSQL has a sequence  
created to support the auto-incrementing primary key (id) and I was  
getting unique index errors when new (or editted!) records were being  
saved and the sequence value was already a different record in the  
table.

(My solution was to manually next values off each of the two sequences  
until it would return a value that wasn't already a key.)

[Rails] polymorphic nested resources

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

Hello list,

What if I have a model called address that is polymorphic, and I also have
an address resource (as I want to try to follow a RESTful design) -- how
could I make polymorphic nested associations between addresses controller
and other related resources (users/1/addresses **and** orders/3/addresses).
What would be the easiest way to accomplish something like that?

[Rails] Re: jQuery's fancyZoom and delayedObserver conflict.

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

Ok, here's why:

fancyZoom hides the target div, and its show() method then creates a
duplicate of this DOM subtree. The problem is that it keeps the same ids,
and we all know we can't have elements with the same ID -- thus, $() and
getElementById fail. The solution was to be more specific and select like
this: $('#zoom-content #id'), where #zoom-content is the name of the
duplicated div that fancyZoom creates, which is different from the hidden
div.
