    <p>Rails Newb here asking his first question....</p> <p>I'm building a personal blog-style website that uses a generic "Post" scaffold to add content to the site. The fields are <strong>title:string</strong>, <strong>body:text</strong>, and <strong>:tag_list</strong> respectively. <em>Acts-as-taggable</em> sorts the posts and puts them on the correct page.</p> <p>When I create a new post and enter text into the <strong>:body</strong>, I can't get it to recognize anything other than pure text. I'm trying to get it to accept in-line html tags, rails methods (i.e. <strong>link_to</strong>, <strong>image_tag</strong>) in the text itself. As I'm typing this I realize what I'm looking for is the basic functionality of most blogging text editors. Is there any easy way to do this?</p> <p>Here is my posts <strong>model</strong>:</p> <pre><code>class Post &lt; ActiveRecord::Base has_many :tags acts_as_taggable_on :tags attr_accessible :tag_list, :tags, :title, :body, :post, :comments validates :title, :presence =&gt; true, :length =&gt; { :maximum =&gt; 30 } validates :body, :presence =&gt; true default_scope :order =&gt; 'posts.created_at DESC' named_scope :by_join_date, :order =&gt; "created_at DESC" </code></pre> <p>Here is my posts <strong>helper</strong>:</p> <pre><code>module PostsHelper include ActsAsTaggableOn::TagsHelper include TagsHelper </code></pre> <p>The <strong>Posts Controller</strong> and <strong>Post Views</strong> are all basicallu unchanged from the scaffold code.</p> <p>Thanks in advance for all your help!</p> <p>~Dan</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
