    <p>First, a little background, because there is a lot of interaction going on: I'm grabbing emails via Fetcher, and processing them using MMS2R to extract the attachments. These attachments are generally going to be PDF files or MS Word documents, so you'd expect that their <code>content-type</code> would be <code>application/pdf</code> and <code>application/msword</code> respectively, but unfortunately it appears that many mail programs do not do this.</p> <p>Instead, the attachments are <code>application/x-pdf</code> and <code>application/x-doc</code>. I need these to be set correctly so that scribd-fu will properly iPaper the documents. Now, mimetype-fu will manage to figure out the proper content-type, but for the life of me, I just can figure out how to properly set the content-type of the paperclip'd attachment.</p> <p>Here's a snippet of the code:</p> <pre><code>mms.process do |media_type, files| # go through each file files.each do |filename| # if it's a format we support, create a record if media_type =~ /pdf/ # just pdfs for now, to reduce confusion File.open(filename) do |tempfile| # Somewhere in here I'd like to change filename.content_type # to the proper type using mimetype-fu # except doing tempfile.content_type = whatever doesn't seem to work. thing = Thing.new thing.document = tempfile thing.save! end end end end </code></pre> <p>Any help would be appreciated, because I've been beating my head against a wall trying all manner of things to try to get this working. I've tried these links already either without success or without grokking what needs doing:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://gist.github.com/55009/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://gist.github.com/55009/</a></li> <li><a href="http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?id=27448" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?id=27448</a></li> <li><a href="http://github.com/dbackeus/paperclip/commit/a514bd03664fc6a764787f59c3169397336702b1" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://github.com/dbackeus/paperclip/commit/a514bd03664fc6a764787f59c3169397336702b1</a></li> </ul> <p>Thanks greatly!</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.
