| AdamWitt | Nah, didn't have attr_accessor |
| lpmusic | AdamWitt: that might help :) |
| AdamWitt | you sure it's "_accessor" and not "_accessible" I cant find accessor in api o.O |
| lpmusic | yes |
| AdamWitt | okidoki Dumb question, but is it in the api? I can't seem to find it o.O |
| lpmusic | attr_accessor :password |
| AdamWitt | nvm |
| lpmusic | ya, it's that :) |
| AdamWitt | found it |
| nakawire | Can anybody here help me implement syntax highlighting abilities for my app? I found this: http://www.railsweenie.com/forums/2/topics/728 but I'm not exactly sure how to go about putting it together |
| AdamWitt | Hrm, the API isn't very lay about it, so not sure how to use it exactly In laymens terms, what does it do / how does it work? |
| Tsarin | Ogredude: thanks - I didn't realize it still logged when I was in script.console |
| AdamWitt | lpmusic, still not sure how attr_accessor works o.O When I put attr_accessor :terms_of_service into my controller, what am I actually doing? The only thing the API says is "Equivalent to calling ``attrsymbol, true on each symbol in turn." |
| ScottTheiGuy | StevenSoroka: Ah, I apologize, my assumptions were wrong. Mysql's normal text type holds more than I thought. Thanks though. |
| lpmusic | AdamWitt: into the model, not the controller :) |
| AdamWitt | ahh Ok, so I stick it int the model What is that doing to :terms_of_service |
| lpmusic | AdamWitt: it's creating the attribute |
| acetoxy | AdamWitt: attr_accessor :terms_of_service creates getters and setters for @terms_of_service |
| Jumb0 | Anyone know how, in RJS, to stop a page element from updating until after a visual effect is finished? |
| AdamWitt | Ahhh |
| lpmusic | normally, rails finds the columns and creates those attributes attr_accessor does it manually |
| AdamWitt | Gotchya |
| acetoxy | No, it does it automatically :) |
| lpmusic | acetoxy: well, you know what i mean :) |
| Jumb0 | anyone? |
| acetoxy | So you dont have to do it by your own ;) |
| AdamWitt | So do I need to have anything in my controller? |
| lpmusic | AdamWitt: no |
| AdamWitt | just a checkbox in view called "terms_of_service" ? |
| lpmusic | AdamWitt: model[terms_of_service], ya |
