Welcome. You've got rails. Jeremy jeremy.thornhill@gmail.com First post? Show Edit Destroy
Welcome. You've got rails. Clarence Darrow lhannen@bellsouth.net Hello. I am your conscience. Set things on fire. So far so good. My only suggestion so far (besides the fire part... don't forget): Put a little more padding around the blue "by block" at the top of each post. It'll look cleaner. Oh... and can your code handle special characters? ¶£¤¥¢®§¨©ª«¬²³´ÜÞñ?Ž???? Looks good in the input box... Show Edit Destroy
Welcome. You've got rails. Clarence Darrow lhannen@bellsouth.net Hrm. Same spam validation eh? 6 plus 5 is 11! And yeah... the text came out alright. Different font from the input box, but that's nitpickery. Show Edit Destroy
Welcome. You've got rails. Jeremy jeremy.thornhill@gmail.com Unicode support is kinda iffy. Rails <a href="http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowToUseUnicodeStrings">supports it out of the box</a>, but the database is from a wordpress install that was using Latin1 - I've now switched the default to UTF8, but there might be some artifacts in older posts. There are also ways to "break" unicode strings in ruby itself, which has pretty crappy unicode support - many methods of the String class assume single byte characters. I don't use any of those directly, so I think I'm safe. BTW, you can use some basic html tags in comments, and some "simple formatting" happens automatically (i.e., no need for p tags).
