Everything indicates that the file is accessible, e.g., I can download if I point the browser at the localhost:3000/javascripts/myscript.js, and there are no error indications. I'm using a mix of versions from older on Solaris to much newer on Linux, and the javascript is completely inert. I'm testing with a simple script which works great if I either point at it via a page on ordinary apache, or directly as a "file://" link. It works great, validates with w3c.org as xhtml strict, and has zero complaints from mozilla and firefox javascript console. Inside the head section, I've tried these two variations, and both are error-free and inert if run via rails (and I verify this with view source options): and it sees them again. Reference: http://piecesofrakesh.blogspot.com/2005/03/script-tag-in-internet-explorer.html The only other thing I can think of is to make sure that the permissions on the file allow the user webrick is running as to read it, also check the logs and make sure webrick isn't trying to 'route' the request, and it is being handled as a simple file download. Hope something here helps, let us all know. -Chris Schneider From mghaught at gmail.com Wed Sep 6 17:55:38 2006 From: mghaught at gmail.com (Marty Haught) Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2006 15:55:38 -0600 Subject: [Boulder-Denver Ruby Group] Boulder-Denver Ruby Group - September 20th Message-ID: <57f29e620609061455v122ef07fo509870f55ab96f43@mail.gmail.com> Hey Guys, We'll have the September meeting on Wednesday the 20th, two weeks from today. We'll meet at 6:30pm to make it a bit easier for those making a long trek to Boulder for the meeting. Doug Fales will lead off our meeting with his talk on his GPS/Photo mash-up work. We'll have a short networking break and then Ara Howard will finish off the night with a talk on regular expressions in Ruby. At this point, we'll continue to meet at Collective Intellect's location on Pearl Street Mall for the foreseeable future (directions below). While I know it's quite a drive for those in Denver, at least we have some nice bars just a few doors down after we're done with the meeting. You're welcome to join us afterwards to chat Ruby or whatever else comes up. As it goes with running a local users group I have plenty of opportunities for any of you to present on a topic to the group. We mainly focus on Ruby but applications or frameworks that use Ruby, such as Rails or Rake are completely acceptable. Don't hesitate to email me if you'd like to speak. It doesn't have to be formal nor do you need to be the foremost expert on Ruby. Not many in the group can count themselves in that group (and we want to give them a break from speaking each month!). Many of you are doing interesting work in the Ruby space that the rest of us would like to hear about. Anyway, I hope to see you there and I appreciate all the support for keeping a local Ruby users group running.
