Thus, if you're going to stick with Rails 2.3.3, I would recommend Rails guides which are located at the following address: http://guides.rails.info/ Also, if you have/(have not) purchased "Agile Web Development with Rails 3ed", I would recommend this book because most of the material is relevant and you'll also find an addendum/errata for Rails 2.3.3 support.
