ruby script/generate controller Tools::Search - ok
in views/layouts/application.rhtml:
<%= render_component :controller => ''tools/search'',
:action =>
''searchbox'',
:params => {:context =>
''header-section''}
%>
in views/tools/search/searchbox.rhtml:
any valid erb/html
In the end I get back a blank page. If I deliberatly induce an error
in erb in searchbox.rhtml, then that error is displayed along with
whatever there is in application.rhtml. However, if the template is
valid, only a blank page is displayed.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you

It''s not exactly what I want. The header may and will change according to variuos parameters. Also other parts of the page will look different depending on the context. And since there is only one ''yield'' to cover it all, I decided to try ''render_component''. I have a ''yield'' in application.rhtml though I''m not rendering any actual content yet. I''m trying to get a feel of how various page parts could be rendered through Rails. And I would really hate to pollute application.rhtml with a multitude of render :partial''s in a ton of if''s and unless''s :)
