Re: I am looking for RoR Webrat Selenium Install Recipe

For what it's worth, I follow the recipe in the Beta version of The
RSpec Book available from [link] as well as watching
the cucumber railscasts at railscasts.com. These are great sources of
info for configuring and using this stack.

I'm running (ubuntu 9.04):

Hi James Englert
Have you configured gem in config/environment.rb using
config.gem and also require 'nokogiri' where you use it?

Hi,
In .htaccess you specify the rewrite url rule to redirect
domain.com to [link]
Place below code in .htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www
RewriteRule (.*) [link]{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,R=301]
Thanks,

Re: link_to_remote with image_tag using Paperclip

2009-11-09T05:23:12Z

Hi Jet Thompson
I have not used Paperclip. But an example usage of
link_to_remote+image_tag is
link_to_remote (image_tag("/images/cancel.png ", {:alt => 'Cancel',
'projects/show', :id => "#{photo.project_id}"}})

Why are you building your own Ruby? Apple's Ruby (in /usr/bin/ruby)
will serve you just fine. Honestly, I think the Hivelogic tutorials are
a little silly insofar as they encourage people to build a redundant
copy of Ruby. That was necessary in Tiger, but not since.

Re: Issues with rails_authentication --include-activation

This doesn't directly address your problem, but I'd suggest that you
forget about restful_authentication and use Authlogic instead. It won't
fill your model files with framework-generated crap, and it's a lot
nicer to work with.

Re: Custom Validations Altering Variable

2009-11-09T05:00:18Z

As promised, I've refactored and improved (I hope!) your code. The new
version is at [link] .
One suggestion I didn't get to make in the source (because the method no
longer exists with that name): convertDNDtoInt is not a Ruby-style name.
The more Rubyish name would be convert_dnd_to_int.

("Method", not "section".)
OK. I couldn't remember for sure offhand.
What universal methods? You don't need any for the case at hand.

In this case, break it into two. See below.
Check out quote_table_name and quote_column_name.
You really shouldn't be using user_id in a join as you're doing in the
query below -- it belongs in a WHERE clause. And at that point,
find_by_sql will handle it. Check the docs.
You're not using class constants.
