Setting css class/style for link_to_remote

Add the relevant code to :html as shown below
<%= link_to_remote 'click me',
:update => 'divid',
:url => {:controller => 'taxes', :action => 'show', :params => {:id => '2'}}, :html => {:style => 'text-decoration: none'} %>


You can also do :html => {:class => 'mycssclass'}

Note that this is different from link_to
<%= link_to 'click me', {:controller => 'taxes', :action => "show", :id => '2' }, :style => 'text-decoration: none' %>
which is annoying until you find out.

A cleaner way of doing tear-downs is through Python's context manager , manifested as the with keyword. class CrushMe: def __init__(self): self.f = open('test.txt', 'w') def foo(self, a, b): self.f.write(str(a - b)) def __enter__(self): return self def __exit__(self, exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb): self.f.close() return True with CrushMe() as c: c.foo(2, 3) One thing that is important, and that got me just now, is error handling. I made the mistake of ignoring all those 'junk' arguments ( exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb ). I just skimmed the docs and what popped out is that you need to return True or

Using adminer on Mac OS X

adminer is a nice php based sqlite manager. I prefer the firefox plugin "sqlite manager" but it currently has a strange issue with FF5 that basically makes it unworkable, so I was looking for an alternative to tide me over. I really don't want apache running all the time on my computer and don't want people browsing to my computer, so what I needed to do was: Download the adminer php script into /Library/WebServer/Documents/ Change /etc/apache2/httpd.conf to allow running of php scripts (uncomment the line that begins: LoadModule php5_module Start the apache server: sudo apachectl -k start Operate the script by going to localhost Stop the server: sudo apachectl -k stop
