[Rails] Best framework for graphs and charts
I have some data in a bunch of tables that I would like to display in a set of graphs. I've been looking at the Google Visualization API, Ziya and Fusioncharts - they all look nice but it would feel better to go with something more Rubyesque ;) So far I've looked at Gruff and Scruffy. Gruff seems to be the most active of the two. Any opinions?

[Rails] Best way and practices to implement search
I'm trying to implement a search engine to look thru some stuff in my models. Is there a way I can do something similar to Model.find, but that is more "forgiving" (poor spelling etc.) and also leverages the relationships that I've specified (so that it also searches has_many or belongs_to models)? Do you have any suggestions on how to implement this. Are there any good plugins or do I have to write it by myself?

[Rails] collection_select not selecting default value
Hi, I'm trying to create a dropdown using collection_select. However, I cant seem to get it to select the right option by default. In my controller I have a setup like this: @content = Content.new @content.selection_id = 3 @selections = Selection.find(:all) In my view I have: <% form_for :content, @content, :url => { :action => 'create' } do |f| %> <%= f.collection_select :selection, @selections, :id, :name %> <%= submit_tag 'Create' %> <% end %> Despite me specifying the default value in the controller, collection_select doesnt seem to pick that up when rendering the html, which defaults to the first option in the dropdown. What idiot-simple thing am I missing? ;) Thanks! g. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] Re: Find with floats
I ended up taking the chicken way out, converting my floats to strings in new columns and adapting my find conditions to look for those instead. Works like charm. Thanks anyways, I wonder why it didnt work. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] Find with floats
I can't seem to seem to get this find condition to work properly. I have an object stored in @ip_range, with a float-longitude: >> @ip_range.lng => 11.967 I then want to match this longitude to a City: >> @city = City.find(:first, :conditions => ["lng = ?", @ip_range.lng]) => nil But I know that it should work, since there is a match in the table, with an id of 4: @city_debug = City.find(4) => # >> @city_debug.lng => 11.967 >> @city_debug.lng == @ip_range.lng => true Something is wrong in my find-condition, but I can't seem to figure out what it is... maybe something to with floats in find conditions?
