		<description>I&#039;d like to see the above poster re-post his thoughts on an active Qooxdoo forum rather than someone&#039;s 2 year old blog post that, while once was some good information on starting this type of project, is no longer relevant. We welcome your input on our mailing list. Until then, please stop making sweeping generalizations that our framework is somehow &quot;not ready for prime time&quot; because it doesn&#039;t fit your specific purpose out of the box. Qooxdoo is a server-agnostic platform and is going to stay that way. The number of server-side languages and web development frameworks that exist is far too vast for us to support even a minority of them out of the box.

The documentation can be difficult to read due to our internationalized development community, but you are short-sighted in claiming that our API documentation is unclear because it does not clearly document your specific purpose. I suggest you compare what we offer to the Ruby on Rails API documentation and you will find that our documentation is at par with what they offer, with a much smaller development community. In addition, claiming the documentation is &quot;outdated&quot; on a two year old blog post exposes you as a hypocrite. Qooxdoo isn&#039;t the only product that has iterated in this period of time. Ruby on Rails has gone through two major releases and they&#039;ve made some especially heavy modifications with the 2.0 release.

Qooxdoo is not a commercial, shrink-wrapped product with a multi-million dollar budget behind it designed for the mass market consumption by the lowest common denominator. It is made by talented developers and designed for use by talented developers. If you do not have anything to contribute to our community other than your opinion grounded in ignorance, we will gladly show you the way out. We have nothing to gain from those who do nothing set us back by spreading incorrect information about what we&#039;ve worked so hard to produce and so graciously given away for all to consume for free. Perhaps you should show yourself the door to the computer programming world in general if this is all you have to offer?</description>

		<description>Yes, trying to use qooxdoo with ruby on rails is a confusing mess.  This site is way outdated.  The qooxdoo documentation, while there is a large amount of it, is not that helpful.  Too bad, because the potential seems to be there.  Apparently its just not ready for prime time yet :)</description>

		<description>Hey TB. Sorry to confuse anyone, but I didn&#039;t format the code correctly, so a whole load of characters apparently got stripped out. 

Let me try this again:
&lt;code&gt;
class String
        alias_method :strip_old, :strip
        def strip(char=nil)
                return strip_old if char == nil
                new_str = &quot;&quot;
                buff = &quot;&quot;
                state = :start
                self.each_byte do &#124;byte&#124;
                        state = :middle if state == :start and byte.chr != char

                        if state == :middle and byte.chr == char
                                buff &lt; 0
                                        new_str += buff
                                        buff = &quot;&quot;
                                end

                                new_str &lt;&lt; byte.chr
                        end
                end

                new_str
        end
end
&lt;/code&gt;

Hope that works,
James</description>

		<description>James is right about the strip (trim front and back spaces of a string). gsub method is used to replace a substring with another substring.

However, James, I am not sure whether you forget to assign a value in buff variable in your iteration because buff is always an empty string. Does the buff variable automatically take the value from comparing byte.char?

Please correct me if I am wrong. I am very new to Ruby.

		<description>I can not get this to work. Has anyone tried this with the current version (0.7.1) of qooxdoo? I&#039;ve tried all of the suggestions with no luck. Does anyone have cleaned up version of this demo documentation.</description>

		<description>Hmm.... I was under the impression that strip was intended to remove characters from the beginning and the end of a string, not from the center:

&lt;blockquote&gt;
      &quot;  hello world  &quot;.strip       #=&gt; &quot;hello world&quot;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

with the space in-tact. I think &quot;gsub&quot; was the method you were looking for:

&lt;blockquote&gt;
      &quot;Hello World&quot;.gsub(&quot;o&quot;, &quot;&quot;) 
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

or the like. Here&#039;s a quick snippet to do a strip with a custom character... I just cooked it up real quick, without any testing, so there&#039;s probably some condition I didn&#039;t fix it up for...

&lt;blockquote&gt;
class String
	alias_method :strip_old, :strip
	def strip(char=nil)
		return strip_old if char == nil
		new_str = &quot;&quot;
		buff = &quot;&quot;
		state = :start
		self.each_byte do &#124;byte&#124;
			state = :middle if state == :start and byte.chr != char

			if state == :middle and byte.chr == char
				buff &lt; 0
					new_str += buff
					buff = &quot;&quot;
				end

				new_str &lt;&lt; byte.chr
			end
		end

		new_str
	end
end
&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>
