Haml: How to include google font - ruby-on-rails

%link{:href => "https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato:400,700" :rel => "stylesheet"}
gives me error. What should I use?
Edit sorry I wasn't specific. How do I properly include fonts using haml?

Well first of all I would generally include that script in the Application Layout. When you generate a new application that is generally written in ERB which would make it quite easy to update and you would just put <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" "https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato:400,700"> up at the top of the page between the <head></head> portion.
Otherwise if you are using HAML in that part of the app as well you would use %link{href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato:400,700" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"}
Now then you just have to update the CSS to use that font in the portion of the application you wish to apply it.

Render HTML file with CSS and local variables

I have the following content in an HTML file placed under public/company/ with a CSS file css/style.css:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/>
<link href="css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all"/>
</head>
<body>
<div class="title">Name {name}</div>
</body>
</html>
I want to render this HTML file with the CSS stylesheet from an action and replace {name} without changing the physical file content and place. I can render the HTML file but the CSS file would not be found. Can anyone help me render the HTML file with the CSS file and replace the {name}?
css/style.css when called from company/file.html will try to load company/css/style.css.
Click here to see an article the way you can do that. Hope it will help!
But, I'm not sure why you are looking to render that way where Rails has all the features in place.
If your CSS file is located at /public/company/css/style.css, then your static HTML file should link it with an absolute path. Use a leading / in the resource's path indicate an absolute path.:
<link href="/company/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all"/>
Note that the Rails router will likely catch this request and raise an exception. Depending on the web server, you may need to enable static assets or serve directly, bypassing Rails altogether.
Changing the content of a static HTML file server-side without actually modifying it (ie. adding ERb) isn't straightforward. You could:
inject some javascript into the response to perform modifications client-side. (ugly)
load the static HTML file using Nokogiri, et. al., modify the content, and send the output to the client. (expensive)
Sounds to me like these vanilla HTML/CSS files are third party (designer? client?) and you would like to drop it in /public and have it work automatically with Rails. That would be nice, but it's not that easy. You'd be better off using Rails' built-in templating system, but that means modifying files and moving them to the expected locations.

Jquerymobile and jquery ui data icon conflict

In my web app, I have a page where I use autocomplete widget from jQuery UI.
I link to jQuery Mobileand jQuery UI CSS from this page.
link rel="stylesheet" href="Styles/jquery.mobile-1.0.1.min.css"
type="text/css" link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="Styles/ui-lightness/jquery-ui-1.8.16.custom.css"
when I do this, my jQuery Mobile data-icons dont show at all. I just see a black hole in place. The other pages where I refer to only the jQuery Mobile have no issues. they display the data-icons fine.
Any idea as to what I could be doing wrong?
Put the jQuery UI css link BEFORE the jQuery mobile css and should work.
Try linking your Javascripts in the followng order:
<script src="custom-scripting.js"></script>
<script src="jquery-mobile.js"></script>
If this doesn't help, try using the custom selector in your code :jqmData(), as it automatically incorporates namespaced data attributes into the lookup when they are in use. For example, instead of calling $("div[data-role='page']"), you should use $("div:jqmData(role='page')"), which internally maps to $("div[data-"+ $.mobile.ns +"role='page']") without forcing you to concatenate a namespace into your selectors manually specially for your data-icons
jQuery mobile shows the icon through a background-image and position CSS declaration, it's likely you have CSS that is overriding those styles.
To find your issue, use your debugger, Chrome's debugger is especially useful, under Computed Style look for the background-image/position style and the CSS class in conflict. Then you can see which class is winning and the actual value, if you see a black box you may very well just have a bad url to the image - which you can identify here as well by following the image link on the CSS style and seeing if that image really exists.
Also I don't see your < and > brackets around your CSS declaration, correct me if I'm wrong but I think you're supposed to link to each css file with a separate tag:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="Styles/jquery.mobile-1.0.1.min.css" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Styles/ui-lightness/jquery-ui-1.8.16.custom.css">

Printing a webpage using PHP or jQuery

I have a webpage with header footer and all. when i print that page , i need to print with custom header and footer and specific page size also.. what all should i take into effect for this..
which one is better. by using php or using jquery plugins. i want more control on page layout
you should use CSS maybe, and a special stylesheet for printable versions :
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="print.css" />
If you have your data using PHP from a DB you can use FPDF

Symfony: question about paths

in the cover page (login, register...) of my app i have this line:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/formularios.css">
When i deploy my app, the that css rule is not loaded because, as i can
see in Firebug, it's looking for that rules in
www.tirengarfio.com/css/formularios.css instead of
www.tiregarfio.com/rs2/web/css/formularios.css.
What should i do?
Javi
You should use the view.yml config file and the include_stylesheets() helper. However, if you'd like to create the link tags by hand, use the public_path() helper to get the correct path.

Asp.net MVC Routing Problem

how many methods for adding style sheets in a page using Asp.net MVC
Wherever you're specifying the CSS for your details page instead of a relative path e.g.
<link href="../../Content/CSS/details.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
try using the content helper and specifying a virtual path instead
<link href="<%= Url.Content("~/Content/CSS/details.css") %>" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
It seems that the site is having trouble loading getting to the CSS file based on a relative link.
Use absolute links to css instead of relative (eg /Content/site.css" instead of "../Content/site.css"). Also you may use Html.Stylesheet("~/Content/site.css") extension (in MvcContrib library) to specify a stylesheet.
Is the problem not getting the right CSS? If so, then I would check your Details.aspx file and make sure the link to the CSS is the right path. Most likely, your Details.aspx file got moved into a new subdirectory or into another directory, thus making the relative paths between the aspx file and the CSS file different.
I would check the page source from the browser and look to see what the path to the CSS file is. The way I would solve the problem would be to modify the aspx file to use a fully-qualified path to the css file. Make sure that works. Then try changing the full path to use relative path.
I had the same issue when working through an example in an MVC book, it mentioned something about the '~' character only working because the <head> tag has the runat="server" attribute on it. So, I tried adding the runat attribute to the link tag itself, as seen below, and it worked:
<link runat="server" href="~/Content/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
