Dear Zack and Corey, I am in the same boat as Corey. Don't see much of a shorcut but definitely see a whole lot of confusion. The documentation that i have read so far does not seem to be make it better. In fact, I tried running this code with Rails on Ruby 1.8.6-p383 and got eyeful of complains from the firefox and IE. This after using the old deprecated way and the new way. Is there any documentation that explains all this very well? Appreciate any help here.
