Interesting Things
- JSON: the consensus seems to be that ActiveRecord's
to_json method is buggy, and that people wishing to transform their ActiveRecords into JSON should use the Fast JSON gem.
- Here's a Rails gotcha: if you are performing a form
POST from a Rails template, there is a risk that any query-parameters in your URL will "stomp" parameters with the same key in your form. In the following code example, id = 1 will be sent to your app:
<code>
# id = 1 will be sent to the app below
url: http://railsapp.com/person/play_with&id=1
--- in play_with.rhtml:
# id = 9 will NOT be sent to the app
# because of the `&id=1` in the URL
form_for :person, @person,
:url => {:action => :something, :id => 99} do |form|
# blah blah blah...
end
</code>
