Hi,
I have a very basic question: How can I check to see if an array includes a certain type of element.
Specifically, I an creating an array of file names from a directory on the server. I then want to identify which items in the array meet a certain pattern. In my controller I have:
@files=Dir.entries("/home/bill/PDF") render :action => "index", :layout => "visions"
In my view I have:
<% for x in @files %> <%= link_to x, :action => :show_pdf, :value => x %><br /> <% end %>
In this case, all entries from the directory at listed. I would like to restrict the links to only those files with a ".pdf" extension. I assume I need to use regular expression code here, but I don't know how to do that in this case.
Thanks.
