Rails - Jul 2006 - can you pass data when you render :action

how can i do:
render :action => "headline", :id => @user.id

Thanks,

render :action => ''headline'' does not actually run the
headline
method. You need to run it explicitly:

def other_action
  @user = User.find(params[:id])
  headline
  render :action => ''headline''
end

def headline
  # you can access @user in here
end

AFAIK .... but I haven''t done this in a while so things may have
changed.

render :action => "headline", :locals => {:user_id =>
@user.id}<http://user.id/>

and then it will be accessible via :user_id in the partial
http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/Base.html#M000206

sorry, that''s user_id, not :user_id (in the partial)

Not sure what you are trying to do, but u can use @user variable itself
in the view.
