Since the first release candidate of Rails 1.2.0 was announced
yesterday, I decided to update my CHM documentation file for this
release. You can find the updated file via my CHM Documentation
Project Page [1], or you can download the file directly from here:

Silly me, I typed in the wrong url. Try this one instead:
http://delynnberry.com/assets/2006/11/24/rails-documentation-1-2-0-rc1.chm.
Sorry about that, and thanks for the heads up.

That’s weird. What sort of error are you seeing (the “something has
gone awry” message, a 404 error, something completely different)? I
haven’t installed IE7 yet, so I can’t test this from my end.

Works for me, IE7 installed.
Thanks for keeping up with these releases. Extremely helpful!

Something weird is going on with IE7 - when I first downloaded the CHM
file, using IE7, and opened it from the download dialog, it didn’t work.
The Welcome page showed:
"Navigation to the webpage was canceled
What you can try:
Retype the address."
Other pages showed:
"This program cannot display the webpage
Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.
What you can try:
Check your Internet connection. Try visiting another website to
make sure you are connected.
Retype the address.
Go back to the previous page."
I then copied the CHM file to a USB pendrive to try on another machine
which has IE6 - then I happened to try opening it from the pendrive on
the original machine (with IE7) and it worked!
Opening again from the C: drive folder I downloaded to (a) puts up a
Security Warning asking if I want to open this file, which has an
Unknown Publisher, and (b) still gives the content errors described
above.
The same happens when I copy the file elsewhere on my C: drive.
Opening from my pendrive (E:) I don’t get the security warning and the
content displays correctly.

The security issue can be resolved by going to the properties page for
the file and clicking the unlock button at the bottom of the window.
I’m guessing that the reason why copying it to the pen drive removed
the security check was due to the fact that the file on the pen drive
did originate from your computer.

…but both in IE7 and IE6, many of the method hyperlinks from the tree
on the left hand side don’t work. They take you to the right page, but
not to the right place on the page.
I’ll take a look at this later today or tomorrow. I’m sure it has
something to do with the CHM contents file that I have to manually
edit to get thing looking pretty.
Thanks, though, for a very useful packaging of the Rails documentation.
Glad you’ve found it to be useful.

For example, the links to methods in ActionController::Base are not
working, whereas the links to methods in
ActionController::Assertions::ResponseAssertions are working fine.
One other point - in the Index tab, double-clicking on a method which is
defined in more than one place (e.g. ===) brings up a dialog that allows
you to choose which occurrence to display - but the Location shown is
just “Rails CHM Documentation - 1.2 Pre-Release”. Something more
specific would be useful.
Thanks, though, for a very useful packaging of the Rails documentation.

I think it was because pen drive is formatted using FAT32 (or FAT16)
and not NTFS.
So when you moved the file to pen drive the NTFS attributes were
stripped.

Thank you! Using the Unblock button (not Unlock) cures both the above
problems.
Still not sure about why the pendrive doesn’t suffer from these problems

FAT32, I hope (it’s a 4GB pendrive)!
Thanks, that makes sense.
