I have a main layout file that, depending on the
@session[''user'']
object, renders the appropriate layout file via render_partial:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=ISO-8859-1">
<link rel="stylesheet"
href="/stylesheets/public.css">
<!-- Custom styles included by specific pages -->
<style><%= @content_for_style %> </style>
</head>
<body>
<% if @session[''user''].nil? # Member nor admin is not
logged in %>
<%= render_partial "/layouts/public_layout" %>
<% elsif @session[''user''].admin? # Admin is logged in %>
<%= render_partial "/layouts/admin_layout" %>
<% else # Member is logged in %>
<%= render_partial "/layouts/member_layout" %>
<% end %>
</body>
</html>
However, if I use the CaptureHelper''s "capture" method or
content_for
("style") inside of these rendered partials, I don''t get
anything in
@content_for_style.
On the other hand, if I use "capture" or
content_for("style") in my
view file, it works as expected. Is this simply a limitation of the
CaptureHelper, or is there some other way?
Thanks,
Duane Johnson
