Hi Zuo!
Thank you again for your help! I did this and it says that a "}" is
missing right after * as in :filename=>*
def exportxml
if params[:item_ids] ||= []
@items = Item.find(params[:item_ids])
respond_to do |format|
format.xml {send_data @items.to_xml do |xml|
xml.instruct!
xml.product do
for t in @items
xml.lineitem(:id=>t.name) do
xml.name(t.name)
xml.in(t.tradeIn/85.to_i)
end
xml.logginginfo do
xml.lognote(t.note)
end
end
end
end
end
:filename=> "items.xml"}
end
end
end
The builder stuff is copied straight from the exportxml.xml.builder.
And I don't know if this is helpful -- if I removed
the :filename=>"items.xml" from above, it downloads! Yet, it again
saves the file without extension and gives me the array of the columns
of the table instead of my builder scheme.
I am sorry to have to ask for your help again.
Thank you
