Rails - Aug 2006 - Can't get Globalize to work correctly - please help!

I recently installed and *I believe* properly configured the Globalize 
plugin. However, it seems to work in one view and not another.

I have two product views - one for a listing of multiple products and 
one for a listing of a single product''s details. My base language is
set
in environment.rb as:

include Globalize
Locale.set_base_language ''en-US''
Locale.set ''en-US''

I have a controller called product. Here''s the index method snippet
(I''m
setting the Locale explicitly to test it out):

  def index
    Locale.set "es-ES"
    @products = Product.find(:all, :order => "date_added",
:conditions
=> @@active
    ....

My product model looks like:

class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
  ....
  translates :name, :description
  ....

In this case, Globalize works correctly and displays the Spanish names 
correctly as seen in screenshot:

The product_details method looks like:

  def product_details
    begin
      Locale.set "es-ES"
      @product = Product.find(params[:id], :conditions => @@active)
     ....

However, no matter what I do, it always keeps displaying the English 
name in this view:

I took a look at the globalize_translations table and to the best of my 
knowledge it looks fine:

I''ve checked the view template and I''m not changing the locale
in the
view at all. I''ve even tried setting the locale in the view template to
"es-ES" and it STILL displays it as English. I have no idea what
I''m
doing wrong, but I suspect it''s something subtle I''m missing.
Would
really appreciate any help with this. Thanks!

Best Regards,

Tamim

I just found something strange. I changed the following:

def product_details
    begin
      Locale.set "es-ES"
      @product = Product.find(params[:id], :conditions => @@active)
     ....

*TO THIS:
*

def product_details
  begin  
    Locale.set "es-ES"
    @product = Product.find(:all, :conditions => "id = #{params[:id]}
AND #{@@active}")
    @product = @product[0]
    ...

And in this case Globalize returns the translated name. But why does it 
not return it when I use Product.find?
