Hello,
I''m a beginner with a question about concatenating some things. The
app
I''m trying to work on has the following line for building the right
column in a standard 3 column header/footer layout:
<% @content_for_right = render( :partial =>
''shared/user_profile'',
:object
=> @user) %>
Where user_profile includes a picture of the person and some other
stuff.
I''ve created an additional view file, shared/_advert.rhtml
If we want @content_for_right to now include both user_profile and also
_advert, how would you re-write the above line to show both?
Many thanks,
rob b
ps. I may not be using the ''view'' terminology correctly.

any file that starts with and underline (_advert.rhtml) is actually a partial. To display another partial you simply call render(:partial => "shared/advert") again, though you may want to rethink how you''re printing it to the overall view. Instead of setting a variable to hold your render partial, maybe just print it straight to the view [view] <%= render(:partial => "my_partial") %> [/view] otherwise if you absolutely need to concat the two, I believe that partial simply returns a string so if you must you should be able to do this: [view] <% content_for_right = (render(:partial => "user_profile") + render(:partial => "advert")) %> [/view] It''s possible to do, but you may want to reconsider your approach the layout of your page.

It looks like you would also be interested in the "content_for" method.
