Hi all, anyone knows where to find examples or documentation on how to implement the page-by-page iterator pattern\* in RoR? Thanks, Alvaro \*Page-by-page iterator pattern: you have a large amount of data and want to show it divided in many pages, providing “next page” and “previous page” links. ---
