Rails 3 compatibility

My issue is actually in relation to session[:session_id] so quite likely not a pusher gem problem. But was wondering why you don't have any Rails 3 demo apps.

Hi Andrew.
There's nothing Rails-specific about the Pusher Gem, and we do use it in some Rails 3 apps without issues. I would need to have a bit more context wrt your code. An obvious question would be: are you setting that :session_id key? AFAIK it won't be set automatically. Does session handling work in general in your app?

Solved! I had changed the name of the channel in the pusher-presence-demo app and did not realize until reading the Pusher documentation more closely that the channel name needed to be of the format "presence-something".

Once I had resolved this issue the session_id was then set by Pusher in the return.

Thanks!
Andrew
