Is there an equivalent to Ruby On Rails' redirect_to :back in ASP.NET MVC? What about after submitting a form? For example: From page1 user clicks a link to page2. Submits a form on page2, then I want to redirect to page1. This works great if I hard code the redirect to go to Page1. However if the user clicks a link to page2 from pag...

Hey Rails People, I'm somewhat of a Rails newbie. I'm writing a couchrest-rails app, so am not using activerecord for this model. I just figured out that that means that form_for(@model) won't work. I'm trying to work out how to use form_tag -- but most of the examples don't involve new & create actions. This is wrong: <h1>New ...

After spending some time on Google all that I've found so far is ChilKat which only runs on Windows. I'm looking for something similar that'll run on Ubuntu. Obviously there's NET::FTP, Net::SSH and Net::SFTP so I could roll my own and that may be what I'll do, but I'm hoping to save a lot of time by using something else that's already b...

Rails seems to be as simple or as complicated as you want to make it. When I look at job postings for Rails they often contain a lot of requirements beyond just being able to throw an app together. This makes me think that even if knew the Agile Rails book from front cover to back I still wouldn't qualify for most Rails jobs. So if yo...

Which one do you prefer for serious Ruby on Rails development? I've been using NetBeans for PHP and Java for more than year, which works really great, but the Rails support isn't imho good enough. I often have problems with code completiton, where it doesn't find most of imported gems and functions and it's also pretty slow. On the oth...

In Rails, what does the question in the title mean? I know that when you install various gems they sometimes have dependencies on other gems. So before deploying the app, I would assume you would need to freeze Rails into the vendor directory and also unpack the gems and their dependent gems into the vendor/gems directory. Is this the...
Can anyone suggest a better way to make a factory use a pre-built model instance for its association? For example, so that it would be possible below to define a child of the Message factory so that a call to Factory(:my_message) could substitute for Factory(:message,:sender=>@me) ? Sometimes the setup hash is more involved than in this...
