Hi, Is there anyway to import TAGCLOUDS in a Ruby on Rails application without using PLUGINS? If it is so, please help me!
Thanks in Advance, cheers.
Is there any way? Of course. You can write the code yourself to handle the recording of tags, the storage and assignment of tags, the counting and ranking of tags, and the styling to create a tag cloud, along with all the associated db migrations, helper methods, etc.
Or you could use the code of someone who has already done this themselves and install the plugin.
If you can't install the plugin for security reasons or something, you could copy and paste the code from the plug in into your application code.
Why would you not want to use the plugin?

Moreover, Even if I want to install gems, it is showing lot of errors. Can you explain me the step by step procedure to install gems which will be helpful for importing tag clouds in my application? Thanks in advance cheers1
I guess in order to help you, we'd need to know what you have tried so far. For me, it was as simple as going to the GitHub repository and following the instructions they give when clicking on the little ruby.
What have you tried?
