Thanks.

Thank you for giving this info, I have 2 questions: 1.What is the default session time of Rails (in case I did not use any plugins) 2.How to get user sesssion id?

Thank you for your help.

The demo on this site doesn’t work anymore:

TypeError in Rating_demo#index

Showing app/views/ratingdemo/rating.rhtml where line #1 raised:

nil can’t be coerced into Float

Don’t give up if you don’t get it working right away, the demo does work! If you are wondering if this demo works on newer environments, mine is Ruby 1.84 and Rails 2.02. Works as advertised! Many thanks to Dave Naffis for this great tutorial, Chris Ingrassia for the acts_as_rateable plugin, and rogie for the CSS. If you are running into problems, be sure to read the comments left by other for things to check for, especially if you are just copy and pasting from the demo (like I did ;-)

I think because of the Ajax it’s a bit difficult to find the errors. I was using WEBrick and was not getting any useful debugging out of Terminal ruby. I switched over to Lighttpd and Terminal ruby had just the information that I needed to debug. Hope this helps someone.

didn’t quite get there in 10 min, but with some work…

had to get “ratings_demo” out of the partial, and make sure I switched out “assets” for my model everywhere
added the parenthesis mentioned by Joseph above
had to change currentuser.id to @currentuser.id

I got there in about 30 min. thanks so much!
