ruby-on-rails-3.1

I developed a Rails 3.1 application that consists of a 100% Ajax CRUD forms to input users and customers. I created two separate models, controllers, views etc. The views for each model contain jquery files for create edit update and destroy. The problem is when I perform any operation that performs a remote operation, it is called twice. I can confirm this happening in console view in firebug as well as output in WEBrick output. Can anyone assist in tracking down what happened here? What would cause rails to process each call twice? If you have precompiled the assets and running in

I would like to limit the number of model Objects a user can create. I've tried the below but it is not working. I understand some changes have happened in rails 3.1 and not sure how to accomplish this now. class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :things, :limit => 5, :dependent => :destroy # This doesn't work end class Things <ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :user end Try something like this: class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :things end class Things <ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :user validate :thing_count_within_limit, :on => :create def thing_count_within_limit if self.user.things(

How do I create a migration to replace the type of that column thanks You should

I have written a Rails 3.1 engine with the namespace Posts. Hence, my controllers are found in app/controllers/posts/, my models in app/models/posts, etc. I can test the models just fine. The spec for one model looks like... module Posts describe Post do describe 'Associations' do it ... end ... and everything works fine. However, the specs for the controllers do not work. The Rails engine is mounted at /posts, yet the controller is Posts::PostController. Thus, the tests look for the controller route to be posts/posts. describe "GET index" do it "assigns all posts as @posts" do Posts::Post

I'm having trouble using the following @font-face declaration to work with my Rails 3.1 app. I put the fonts in the Asset Pipeline in its own folder called "Fonts" alongside images and stylesheets and javascripts Here is the declaration I used (generated by Font Squirrel.) @font-face { font-family: 'ChunkFiveRegular'; src: url('Chunkfive-webfont.eot'); src: url('Chunkfive-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), url('Chunkfive-webfont.woff') format('woff'), url('Chunkfive-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'), url('Chunkfive-webfont.svg#ChunkFiveRegular') format('svg'); font-weight: normal
