In my ApplicatoinController I have:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
MOBILE_USER_AGENTS = 'palm|palmos|palmsource|iphone|blackberry| nokia>phone>midp>mobi>pda>' + 'wap|java|nokia|hand|symbian|chtml|wml| ericsson>lg>audiovox>motorola>' + 'samsung|sanyo|sharp|telit|tsm|mobile|mini| windows ce|smartphone|' + '240x320|320x320|mobileexplorer|j2me|sgh| portable>sprint>vodafone>' + 'docomo|kddi|softbank|pdxgw|j-phone|astel| minimo>plucker>netfront>' + 'xiino|mot-v|mot-e|portalmmm|sagem|sie-s| sie-m|android|ipod'
def is_mobile_device? request.user_agent.to_s.downcase =~ Regexp.new (MOBILE_USER_AGENTS) end
My problem is in my /views/layouts/application.html.erb I have:
<% if is_mobile_device? %>
I get:
undefined method `is_mobile_device?' for #<ActionView::Base:0x6752ff0>
How can I refer to is_mobile_device? from this view -- as well as all views and controllers -- I want to be DRY about this - how can I do that? -Janna B.
