But it takes a programmer to use google to find the right information, it takes a programmer to learn that information, it takes a programmer to code that to the system... In the future, there may have artificial software, but it takes time to realize that... However, the human nature is to make things simple instead of complex. So we can focus on solving next problems... If you look at the history of Internet, you will find things is becoming more and more easy, right?

Essentially, there is no difference. you can not give any answer, if you don't know. Or you can give some guidance if you have some clue. Personally I didn't see any difference, however, you can interprete on your way, though... -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

It's clearly not so much a test to find "who is qualified" as to weed out who is definitely UNqualified - it's a question that any good candidate can answer easily, but being able to answer it doesn't necessarily mean a candidate is good. The second part seems to test actual intelligence and puzzle-solving ability. http://www.facebook.com/jobs_puzzles/?puzzle_id=6 -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

You'll find the answer in Sven's excellent tutorial: http://www.artweb-design.de/2006/11/10/globalize-five-minutes-instant-overview It's under the heading "How to add ViewTranslations": lang = Language.pick('de-DE') Locale.set_translation('Welcome', lang, 'Willkommen') The idea is to create a web interface in your app that will call this code and allow the translator to translate your site online.

So what you are looking for is a way to edit rows in the database table. You could edit the rows directly by using a console client, a database web interface or gui client. You can build your own translation manager web interface on Rails - which is what Szymek guides you through here: Or you can add translations "manually" through your own code (i.e. in the script/console). I've mentioned an example of this here: Hope this helps to get you started.

I've also tried installing the BrowserFilters plugin, but that did not work either. I have a feeling it may be the case that when these characters were originally put into the database, they were somehow entered incorrectly. I seem to be able to enter the correct characters--i.e., curly quotes--myself and they save and display fine. Is there any way to do some sort of search and replace on these guys? Thanks for the help. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
