Rails - Aug 2006 - Read Only fields

I''m using a partial to render both my new and edit views.  How do I 
indicate that I want specific fields to be display only on the edit 
form?

Thanks for the help.

You might want to try something like

render :partial => ''your_partial'', :locals => {:edit
=> true}

and then in the partial

<% if edit -%>
  yeehaa, you might edit
<% end -%>

Cheers,
Jan

and to get the edit-bool the @controller variable might come in useful

@controller.action_name == ''edit''
