I believe these vids are available on YouTube.

Every model has an errors object that tracks errors on your object which is especially useful to see what validations failed and provide helpful messages (notices) to the user -- V5.1,5:00.

V5.1,7:06 Callbacks.

###Including JS in search.js or application.js

jQuery works when inline in the view file, but not when added to the javascripts/ directory.

$(this) vs event objects

What's the difference.

####Strange Test Behavior

With no apparent order, the test will sometimes pass and sometimes not pass.

####Zurb Foundation See this article. Good discussion of Foundation vs Bootstrap. Thought this was a great overview of responsive design.

####Mobile emulator Any tools you use to mimic different screen sizes? Mobile and tablet.

####Form submits to TagsController#destroy

Whenever I add the Foundation button-group to my form, the 'Save Changes' submit button requests TagsController#destroy instead of #update.

= simple_form_for @tag do |f|
  = f.input :name, label: false
  = f.button :submit, "Save Changes", class: 'button'
= link_to 'Back to Tags', tags_path, class: 'button'
= button_to 'Delete Tag', tag_path(@tag), :method =&gt; :delete, data: { confirm: 'Delete Tag?' }, class: 'button'

Availability of set_user

Think I'm missing something obvious here, but why is set_user available to be called wherever I want in CollectionsController?

2.0.0p353 :009 > class Test
2.0.0p353 :010?>   def self.method1
2.0.0p353 :011?>     method2
2.0.0p353 :012?>     end
2.0.0p353 :013?>   def method2

Testing controller 'helper' type methods

I have a couple methods defined in controllers that I call in one of the controller actions.

Example from SearchController:

I've been testing these methods by actually making a request. That can't be the most efficient way to test them. I can't exactly call ApplicationController.assigns_session_tags and then test the result...

	= link_to "Tags", tags_path
	= link_to "Search", new_search_path
	= simple_form_for @note do \|f\|
	= f.input :title, label: false, placeholder: "note title"
	= f.input :content, label: false, placeholder: "note content"
	#tags
	- @tag_list.each do \|tag\|
	= button_tag "#{tag.name}", data: tag.id
	#new_tags
	= text_field_tag 'new_tags', nil, placeholder: "Add additional comma separated tags here"
