I am new to Symfony and I need to work to a large project with many themes to modify them. How can I find where actually is the theme file in which module, just looking at the HTML browser output? Or do I need to look somewhere else, routing for example?
What you want to do is use the Web Debug Toolbar.
Once you have that running on the page, using appname_dev.php, simple click the view link and it will show you which templates have been used. If you need to know which layout to use then use logs link, click none the sfPHPView.

I would like to convert my existing website to Joomla. However, I need finer control over URLs than I seem to be able to control with Joomla. Assuming that Joomla is installed in the base public_html directory of my user, I would like these pages to keep their URLs:
http://dotancohen.com/howto/rtl_right_to_left.html
http://dotancohen.com/eng/genealogy.php
http://dotancohen.com/heb/contact_info.html
I am aware that I could use a 301 redirect via .htaccess however I would prefer to actually configure the canonical URL of the page. Is this possible in Joomla or with an extension?
Unquestionably, the defacto standard extension is At http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/site-management/sef/10134. It's highly configurable, well supported, and ver well rated.
In Joomla! 2.5 you can use the built-in Redirect component to catch old URLs and send them to the right content without fiddling with the .htaccess.
You can also create menu's and menu items that will match the old paths then all you need is to place the content of your .html files into suitable articles. Remember you can create a menu (and thus a path to the content) but not display the menu anywhere on the site.
The genealogy.php appears to be a separate application so you can approach that by doing two things, first have a /eng/ directory on your new website with the genealogy.php application in it that way it will have the same URL. Then if you want to create a menu item in a Joomla! menu then you can link to it using a menu item of type 'External Link' - you can read more about the menu types by clicking on the help button in the toolbar.
[EDIT]
For external pages if you want to wrap the external application in your template use a menu item type of Iframe Wrapper this will place them in the main component area of the template. With a good Joomla! 2.5 template you can use a template style specific (i.e. layout settings) for that page.
I was wondering how one would apply a global stylesheet to their entire site? I want to add twitter bootstrap, and a select number of other global styles, so that all the visuals are consistent.
Would I add a <link> to the layouts/main.gsp file?
UPDATE
Seems it's the css/main.css file that I'm interested in. Along with the layouts/main.gsp's reference to it. Could someone confirm this?
By default grails will use the "main" layout for scaffolding. So yes, those are the two files you are interested in.
I inherited the management of a Symfony site and need to add some HTMl form tags to one of the "static" pages via the CMS. The scenario I have is:
/index.php/splash/welcome pulls up the welcome screen.
We want to be able to add a subscription button on that page.
The HTML has been supplied for us by the company that handles the subscriptions.
The form post method has an action that references a script on a remote site (no lectures on the security implications please ;-).
When I add the <form... and <input... tags via the CMS admin panel, the tags get removed automatically by Symfony.
Is there a way to tell Symfony to allow these tags?
Thanks in advance,
Marty.
This is goign to depend completely on how the developer set up the CMS. Youre using a rich text editor in source mode i would take a look at that editor's config file and documentation because its probably the one responsible for stripping the tags.
If its just a plain text area i would check the submit action for the edit form and take a look at the code... he may be using something to strip them in there.
If youre using one of the Symfony CMS plugins (Diem, Apostrophe, Sympal) i might be able to help further if i know which one youre using. If its something custom we would need to see the code. This isnt really indiciative of the Symfony core, but rather the CMS youre using.
My site currently has some static pages. I'm looking for a rails wysiwyg webtool with which I can change those static pages (with images) dynamically. The number of pages is fixed and I don't have to be able to dynamically add new.
Update
The site already has a design template assigned which I don't need to change. I only need to be able to change the content of some of the pages.
Someone can suggest me something?
Thanks
Stijn
Are you looking for a server site tool that facilitates editing static HTML files but uses a web browser interface?
If so I think that only solves part of the problem. You pages still have, presumably, some common "furniture" like a Banner pane, Left pane, Right pane, Footer. If you want to change these you will have to edit every file. What about if you have telephone number in the Banner - if that changed it would be better to just change that centrally.
These are problems that a Content Management System addresses, so if you are not familiar with that you may want to read up on CMS.
To compare CMS systems see: http://cmsmatrix.org/matrix/cms-matrix?func=search
You can enter "Rails" or maybe "Ruby" in the Language field of the Search form
