[Rails] Revision: Background image contained in stylesheet
I realized that I should have included a bit more information in my previous post, so here's the revision. application.html.erb is correctly finding the stylesheet for my project via %= stylesheet_link_tag 'style1' %. My webpages reflect the styling properly with a few exceptions .. the most notable being some .jpg images defined for background do not display at all. I have those images in public/images. The following is the stylesheet code containing the reference to the image. #navigation { width: 180px; height: 484px; background: #7da5a8 url(nav-bg.jpg) no-repeat; } I tried the absolute path to the image above per: background: #7da5a8 url(C:\InstantRails\rails_apps\getdowninthevalley\public\images\nav-bg.jpg) no-repeat; but that didn't work either This worked fine until I retrofitted the webpages into the Rails framework (which I really like, but which I'm relative new to). If anyone knows the solution, I would really appreciate it ... thanks in advance!

[Rails] Have simple sidebar code snippet for application.html.erb?
Googled forever trying to find a good example of how to do a simple sidebar (code snippet) in application.html.erb. I've found bits and pieces, but I need the whole piece of meat. Is anyone willing to share a complete example code snippet for doing a sidebar? I'm thinking it may involve some new show code in the controller as well? Your help will be most appreciated!
