Any thoughts on compatibility with Sql Server? I’m able to pull data from the DB, but it’s throwing errors about the ID field on create, update and destroy…?

Hi, This is nice stuff!
I have a suggestion to enhance the useability even further.
Include tinyMCE plus to the generated forms so users can style textcolumns.

@blaise/#51: Well basically, you can’t (easily). I am currently working on a “reloaded” version of ext_scaffold that will generate all the javascript explicitly and per resource instead of hiding it in “magic helpers”. It should be more straightforward to enhance the generated scaffold then. (Should be ready within the next couple of weeks, once I get Internet Explorer to cooperate, that is).

Hi, I love this generator.
But I was wondering how I can config the inline toolbar for New, Edit, Delete… Per say, i have a model that can only create new items, but only certain users can edit or delete. Any suggestions?

Great scaffolding! In ext_scaffold/templates/controller.rb, you may want to replace the two “_url” references to “_path” so that it’ll remain on https if it’s deployed to an SSL secured env’t.

Thanks again!!
