I wonder if a Ruby on Rails developer has encounter this before: suppose it is a long article (say 100,000 words), and I need to write a Ruby file to display page 1, 2, or page 38 of the article, by
display.html.erb?page=38 but the number of words for each page can change over time (for example, right now if it is 500 words per page, but next month, we can change it to 300 words per page easily). What is a good way to divide the long article and store into the database? P.S. The design may be complicated if we want to display 500 words but include whole paragraphs. That is, if we are showing word 480 already but the paragraph has 100 more words remaining, show those 100 words anyway even though it exceeds the 500 words limit. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
