El Dorado

Hi Trevor, I was wondering if there's any source of documentation for the built-in calendar you´re using. I've been trying to modify it to give a custom feel, but it seems very difficult to set individual properties for days - say to show one particular day highlighted or in a different color or such.

Also, does anyone have a lead on a simple editor, like, say FrontPage but that can be used with .html.erb files.

Finally, I came across this bug when entering a new Topic: Enter a title but no body (just leave it empty), then click to save. System gives error message, ´Posts is invalid´, and you cannot use the ´cancel´ link to exit.

I'm using this calender plugin, which I hacked up a little: http://github.com/topfunky/calendar_helper/tree...

I'm thinking of switching to this one, though: http://github.com/clemens/later_dude/tree/master

I'll see about that cancel link, but you are required to have something in the post field when you save the topic, so that's an expected error.

I made this addition to the Topic class I found on the web, which allows you to make your own custom validations and error messages

class Topic < ActiveRecord::Base
validate do |Topic|
Topic errors_add_to_base("Body can´t be blank")
if Topic.body.blank?
end

But you still see the ´Posts can´t be blank´ message, and you still can´t cancel. I´ll keep looking.

I think I've fixed the cancel link problem (see github), but I'm not sure what you need with the "post's can't be blank" message. Do you want to be able to make a topic without a post?

Thanks, I´ll put that fix in my version.

Thing is, I don´t want to see the Posts message: it´s a little generic, which is where that code I showed comes in handy since you can make custom error messages for each field.
