Today, I found a really good CMS. I'm looking for ruby 3 CMS for a while. I found this CMS solution that use my favorite NoSQL database system: MongoDB. I think multi site feature is rare in ror applications. Locomotive CMS do it.

Locomotive is an open source CMS for Rails 3. It's super flexible and integrates with Heroku and Amazon

Some features from technical Specs:

The problem

I want to write JavaScript files that use dynamic informations via Ruby on Rails. I think my solution also works with rails 2 and 3.
What can dynamic JavaScript do for you? You can write JavaScript on your ERB (embedded ruby) file beside HTML code. This is very simple, but not the best solution for a longer jQuery script.
For example:
Translation in JavaScript: translation with I18n.t() Rails method would be great in separated JavaScript file with ERB capability.

// some jquery code before alert
alert(<%= I18n.t(:forbidden_message) %>);

I got the following error when i run a rake db:seed command on may RoR application:
invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII)

I found the soution and the error has gone away:
You should add a line to your file:

# encoding: utf-8

You can change the utf-8 to any other encoding that you use.
I added this line to my seeds.rb file and all UTF-8 code have been executed without errors.

Good luck!
