RAILS 3: nav_link helper for adding 'selected' class to navigation elements

#Behold, the nav_link:

The nav_link helper works just like the standard Rails link_to helper, but adds a 'selected' class to your link (or its wrapper) if certain criteria are met. By default, if the link's destination url is the same url as the url of the current page, a default class of 'selected' is added to the link.

For full usage details, see: http://viget.com/extend/rails-selected-nav-link-helper

Drop nav_link_helper.rb into app/helpers in your Rails 3.x app and enjoy.

Learn JavaScript concepts with recent DevTools features

Learn JavaScript concepts with the Chrome DevTools

Authored by Peter Rybin , Chrome DevTools team

In this short guide we'll review some new Chrome DevTools features for "function scope" and "internal properties" by exploring some base JavaScript language concepts.

Closures

Let's start with closures – one of the most famous things in JS. A closure is a function, that uses variables from outside. See an example:

A subtle difference between Ruby's Hash.fetch(:key, :default) vs. (Hash[:key] || :default)
h = {
'a' => :a_value,
'b' => nil,
'c' => false
}
h.fetch('a', :default_value) #=> :a_value
h.fetch('b', :default_value) #=> nil
h.fetch('c', :default_value) #=> false
h.fetch('d', :default_value) #=> :default_value
