Rails - Mar 2006 - Can you render partial with collection non-existent rows?

Hi,

I''m trying to create a blank input form with a header and many item 
lines. I would like to build the item lines dynamically ie not hard code 
up to 100 lines into my form. Is it possible to use render partial with 
a dummy collection for this? When I try to render with @item_lines 
holding 1 object created with .new, I get:

ActionView::TemplateError (undefined method `each_with_index'' for 
#<Item:0x24c98b8>) on line #22 of app/views/receipts/new.rhtml:
21:
22:     <%= render :partial => ''item_line'', :collection
=> @item_lines
%>

If @item_lines holds objects read from the database, the page renders 
OK. Am I approaching this problem the wrong way?

-thanks
Lindsay

I work in a Windows centric environment where everything is 
authenticated to Active Directory.  I have Apache authenticating access 
to Rails 1.0 apps using mod_sspi and pass-thru NTLM authentication.

It works fine for basic page loads in IE and also IE seems to pass the 
NTLM token with each AJAX call as well so IE works fine.

Firefox however works fine and passes NTLM for basic page loads, but 
won''t pass NTLM authentication for AJAX calls and subsequently asks the
user to log in when they hit something using an auto_complete_for.

Is there a workaround for this that any of you have discovered to either 
force Firefox to NTLM authenticate AJAX calls or to work around this in 
Rails?
