I'm using Feedzirra to get some rss content. This content can be updated by a third person. In my controller I have the following code:
RSS_FEED = "http://xxxxxxxx.wordpress.com/category/my_category/feed/"
my_feed = Feedzirra::Feed.fetch_and_parse RSS_FEED
#my_feed_text = my_feed.entries.first.sanitize! if ( my_feed && my_feed != 0 )
Eveything works fine until someone update the content of the only article in the my_category category...I'm getting the old content again and again. I try to put the RSS_FEED url in a browser and I get the new content...but in my application (also tried in rails console) I keep getting the old content.
Any hint?
Apparently the problem was with the refresh of wordpress rss. Today is working fine, the change is visible within 5-10 minutes.

If anyone has managed to get locally uploading images I'd be mightily appreciative of some help.
I've downloaded the latest version of nicEdit along with the nicUpload plug in (from nicedit.com - Version 0.9 r24 released June 7th, 2012).
I've also downloaded nicUpload.php from http://svn.nicedit.com//trunk/nicUpload/php/nicUpload.php
NicUpload.php - I've set NICUPLOAD_PATH and NICUPLOAD_URI both to 'images' which is the subfolder of where nicupload.php and nicEdit.js are located.
NicEdit.js - I've added the following to line 271:-
uploadURI : 'nicUpload.php?id=123',
I've given it an ID otherwise it was failing with an invalid ID code. But the ?id=123 isn't meant to be there. I've also set the iconsPath accordingly.
Line 1370 I've switched this:-
nicURI : 'http://api.imgur.com/2/upload.json',
for this:-
nicURI : 'http://www.mydomain.com/nicedit/nicUpload.php',
But I'm still getting "Failed to upload image". I've searched and searched and searched for answers to this and I'm getting close to having spent two days tinkering with it.
With a few debugging displays I can see that it's failing on line 46 of nicUpload.php where it says:-
$file = $_FILES['nicImage'];
$image = $file['tmp_name'];
$max_upload_size = ini_max_upload_size();
if(!$file) {...
That last IF is true and that's where it exits with the error.
Appreciate anyone being able to help.
The nicUpload.php script file laying around sucks and I don't even understand how it could work.
NicEditor uses imgur as the default image upload service. The source code follows the API format described here: http://api.imgur.com/resources_anon#upload
My suggestion would be to implement the API request and response defined there.
I did not use the niceedit upload function to do what you want. I managed to add a button to the link and img dropdown menu. The button opens a file manager window where you also can upload. I managed to put then de url of the image or document into the nicedit drop down img or url window. That is how I solved the problem.
Currently, I have an issue with populating an iframe that I have with a PDF document, but this issue only occurs in IE.
Basic Layout:
I have a screen that contains a list of items (attachments), which can be images, text or pdf. When the user clicks on one of these items - it will make a call to a controller action [ViewAttachment] which will return the requested item and display it in the iframe.
This currently works for all data types with the exception of PDFs in IE. (Firefox, Chrome etc. all display the PDF in the iframe without issue.)
I previously was using Adobe Reader 9, and recently upgraded to 10 in hopes of solving this issue. I'll attach some code to see if anyone has any suggestions as to how to possibly resolve this.
Code to Populate iframe: (Moved to two lines for readability)
$(".viewattachment").live('click',function ()
{
$("iframe#test").attr("src","<%=Url.Action("ViewAttachment","Images") %>?
attachment=" + $(this).next().val());
});
ViewAttachment Controller Action:
public ActionResult ViewAttachment(string attachmentGuid)
{
Attachment attachment= imageAgent.GetAttachment(attachmentGuid);
Stream resultStream = new MemoryStream();
resultStream = StorageProviders[attachment.ProviderName]
.ReadFile(attachment.FileReference);
resultStream.Position = 0;
FileStreamResult result = new FileStreamResult(resultStream,
attachment.ContentType);
return result;
}
Notes:
I've attempted toggling the "Display PDF in Browser" in Adobe Reader without any success.
Currently testing this for IE8.
When clicking on a PDF to view - the iframe simply remains at it's previous content and doesn't change at all.
After several different methods and iterations of testing - I determined that it was a conflict between IE8-9 and versions of Adobe Reader 9-10. I added the following meta tag to the window containing the iframe and it resolved all of the issues:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />
This should at least work until an update / fix is made.
Have you tried hitting the pdf url directly? If it loads within the browser, then you can narrow down the problem to the iframe. If Adobe Reader pops up, then you know its a problem with the IE Plugin.
I had the same problem working with spring mvc. I releazed that if I put the Iframe inside some tag, like 'util:panel', the iframe does not load de pdf content in IE 8. When I put the iFrame out of the tag, all work fine.
i am working with Ext JS form submission with Rails as backend..
Everything works fine when i use Chrome i.e. values get inserted into the database, but when i use any oher browser for my appn i.e. IE or Mozilla, form values dont get inserted into database.. What can be the reason?? Am i missing something??
I get an alert "submitted" in IE & Mozilla,but i guess its not reaching controller(url) of my rails appn...Following is the code :
var sbtn=Ext.getCmp('submitbtn');
sbtn.on('click',function(){
var frm=Ext.getCmp('FormPanel');
frm.el.unmask();
frm.getForm().submit(
url = '/customers/new',
alert('Submitted'),
window.open('customers.json')
);
I finally found solution to my own problem.. its working in IE/Mozilla now..I just realized i need to add the attribute standardSubmit: true to my FormPanel component.
I'm working with Ruby On Rails 2.3.8 and I'm using TinyMCE with image and video upload functionalities.
I've figured out that when I insert a Vimeo video, it won't work, because it needs it's own iframe, as the following:
<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/16430948" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><p>YOU! - Heart from KUSKUS on Vimeo.</p>
I'm now wondering how to show either youtube (which work just fine), vimeo, and other kind of embedded videos.
Update:
Searching on the internet I've found the following code, in the file /plugins/media/media.js, within getType function:
// Vimeo
if ( v.match(/^http:\/\/(?:www\.){0,1}vimeo\.com\/(\d+)$/) ) {
f.width.value = '400';
f.height.value = '321';
f.src.value = 'http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=' + v.match(/^http:\/\/(?:www\.){0,1}vimeo\.com\/(\d+)$/)[1];
return 'flash';
}
But it's not working for me. At least, all I see is that it's treating it as it was a common flash video, instead of inserting an iframe on the html for playing it (as it's done when you click the "Embed" button at vimeo.com).
The iframe tag usually gets removed (cleanup) if you do not specify otherwise.
Add this to your tinymce configuration to keep iframes inside the editor:
extended_valid_elements:"iframe[id|class|title|style|align|frameborder|height|longdesc|marginheight|marginwidth|name|scrolling|src|width]",
This thread might be of help too.
I'm building a rails app that takes information about products from an XML datafeed hosted on a 3rd party server. This XML is sent gzipped, and I'm having serious difficulty in getting anywhere with it.
I've spent a fair bit of time with Google on this, but the results of my searching seem to be more about Sending Gzipped output rather than receiving a Gzipped input.
The closed I've come to a solution came from StackOverflow, but I'm still getting errors.
What I'm trying to do in the first instance is print the XML data to the browser, then I can start with the processing of it. Here's my current code:
def load_data
url = "http://xml.domain.com/datafeed/"
xml_input = Net::HTTP.get(URI.parse(url))
zstream = Zlib::Inflate.new
#xml_output = zstream.inflate(xml_input)
zstream.finish
zstream.close
end
The error I'm getting from it is:
Zlib::DataError in Cron/get datafeedController#load_data
incorrect header check
I guess this means that the data isn't in the format that is expected, but I can't find information about how to do this properly anywhere. Two things I've ruled out is that the URL is valid and the response is Gzipped, but I'm stuck with how to get past this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated :-)
Sorted!
file = Net::HTTP.get(URI.parse(url))
gz = Zlib::GzipReader.new(StringIO.new(file))
whole_xml = gz.read
Then to load into Hpricot to do the XML parsing:
hp = Hpricot(whole_xml)
