Alright, for anyone reading this blog to learn about Rails (hopefully, all of you), I'll just go ahead and give the spoiler. This particular post contains nothing specifically Rails related. I just wanted to precede all of my problems that you will no doubt be seeing on this site with the disclaimer that I am a certified noob. I own a web design business (www.nobswebdesign.com), and have programmed everything to date in PHP and javascript with some AJAX sprinkled in. That is, until my most recent project. So, for the last 5 weeks, I've been learning this new language, and so far so good. Yes, there may be that occasional night where I spend 3 hours staring at an "if" statement that I can't get to work. But other than that, I'm nearly done with the project. That could never happen in any other language. I'm loving it. But be forewarned, you are likely to see some pretty obvious questions raised in my posts. Hopefully, they'll help someone.
