I trying jqmodal for popup dialogs and running into a problem. jqmodal lets you specify a div containing content for the popup dialog and renders it for you. The dialog is hidden initially and then you use a show cmd in JS to reveal it. I''m filling the content with a partial. The prob I''m having is that I''m getting my general application layout rendered into the popup as well and I dont want that. I thought I could do a conditional layout in my controller for the action corresponding to the content of the popup, but that doesnt seem to get hit and I always end up with the layout rendered. I also thought I could do something like this: <%= render :partial => ''partial'', :layout => ''popup_layout'' %> based on reading here (section called "Rendering partials with layouts"): http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Partials.html but when I do that I get: Missing template controller_name/_popup_layout.erb in view path ... In other words, it thinks the layout is the partial name. Any ideas either specific to jqmodal or rendering partials with a particular layout? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
