Can we just create a copy of the ./generators directory and put it somewhere else to modify at will? how did you go about creating the custom generator?

Maybe it will give me a means to accomplsh my goal. I'm a noob to Rails and am soaking up as much as I can about all that it and it's third party gems & plugins can do for me. Still learning the the whole views, partials, etc thing. But still don't have a clue of what I am doing. Not even sure how to state my question. I'm working with active_scaffold. Perhaps a crutch. I love the fact that it gives me a fairly customizable view. I love being able to click on a column head for sort. And I link the spinner. But I want to control what it displays (the model i've scaffolded). Can't figure it out. I want to simply filter out records that don't meet my criteria with a button click and re-include them with a click of the same button. Right now I would be happy with a forced filter. Can't get any responses from railsform or groups.google.active_scaffold forums. Again, as I said i'm a noob and perhaps I'm looking at this all wrong. I ran across this blog and found it interesting. I'm a Delphi/VB programmer and know how I would handle displaying a table and how to control it. Any feedback for this "deer in the headlights" would be welcome. Thanks again!

You might also be interested in http://www.streamlinedframework.org/ and http://activescaffold.com/ for other scaffolding type tweaks. I haven't actually tried either yet but its on my todo list.

i’d suggest wrapping table header row with ‘th’ rather than ‘td’ as per the standard.

It's vertical-align. For reference... http://www.w3schools.com/htmldom/prop_style_verticalalign.asp I personally prefer tables as I feel there's a lot more control and much less jimmy-rigging between browsers that can get to be a real headache.

Thanks. Love the custom scaffold generator. Could you update this by replacing start_form_tag with the newer form_tag do block? start_form_tag / end_form_tag are deprecated in Rails 2.0. Thanks.
