I've been having a play with eBay and PayPal API calls and am happily
getting xml responses using Net::HTTP calls but now I'm wondering if I
can use ActiveResource instead.
I've created a very basic ActiveResource class that has self.site set to
a full url that returns xml data in a browser window

Hi all,
I have a really really annoying problem that's driving me nuts with
file_field and paperclip and having to upload images everytime a form is
edited even though the user is quite happy with the currently uploaded
image or loose the previously uploaded image.
This seems to be caused by the

Hi,
I'm trying to get Paperclip to work with asset_host and have totally
failed to do so.
The idea is to use asset_host to specify the url that I want to use for
my image hosting (www.unlimitedwebhosting.co.uk) so that link helpers
will use the image host location instead of the local file system

This is more about theory than coding so I hope I have the right place.
I would very much appreciate some input as to the best approach on how
to offer different options in my app depending on configuration criteria
and current user.
Some examples of what I want to do I guess would be a help.

I have a helper that uses some jQuery code that I would like to move out
of the helper method.
I am trying to move it to application.js but it will probably end up in
a different file.
I have two reasons for wanting to do this.

The best way to ahieve this is in a stored procedure in the database.
Just create a method on your model class that will run the stored proc,
