I think mostly I would go to the template, and then discover that I'd =
need some logic to get it to come out right, so I'd mix that in (which =
really clutters things up), and then I'd realize I needed to loop it, =
and so I'd move that whole chunk back to the controller. The =
deal-breaker came when I found it was apparently impossible to emit HAML =
*from the controller* and have it processed. If I move this chunk of =
template back to the controller because of the need to change the output =
based on the data, then I had to emit HTML, then convince HAML not to =
escape it. So I just went back to HTML in the first place, and cut down =
on the number of languages I had to deal with.=20

I didn't find Erector when I was looking. It was mentioned to me =
recently, and look at first glance rather a lot like what I built for =
myself, so I intend to give it a very close look sometime soon.=20

It's a program for a pharmaceutical company to track their products, =
processing, and inventory. My PostgreSQL schema uses a custom data type =
('percentage' which is a numeric(5,2) that cannot be set above 100.00 or =
below 0.00), uses UUIDs for the primary keys of most tables, and takes =
advantage of PostgreSQL's "array" datatype to let me eliminate five or =
six linking tables, to just name a couple things off the top of my head =
that were completely un-create-able from within Rails and ActiveRecord.=20=

You'd think so. I need it because I *am* using a reverse proxy. However, =
the redirect _attaches the port number_, which the reverse proxy =
commands of Apache do not strip back off. The primary webserver is =
running Apache, but this site is on a different machine, and the main =
machine redirects traffic to it. So from the outside, they go to =
'specific domain,' which goes to the primary webserver, port 80, with =
the target domain in the header, which reverseproxies it to the other =
machine on port 7000 (for the production site) or 7010 (for the =
demo/test site). And then the redirect occurs, and the client's web =
browser is now trying to get to =
"http://domain.com:7000/path/to/whatever" which obviously fails.=20

I've tried adding URL rewrite rules in apache to fix them, but the =
interaction with the reverse proxy has utterly confounded me.=20
