I''ve got a typical setup here, in my index file there is the line <%= render :partial => ''/shared/week'', :locals => {:week => @pastDate} %> >> @pastDate = "1/7/2007" _week.rhtml <%= "#{@pastDate} - #{week}"%> .... output is: "1/7/2007 - " So the variable is being set, its just not being passed or something I''ve also tried in the index <%= render_partial ''/shared/week'', :locals => {:week => @pastDate} %> and <%= render_partial ''/shared/week'', @pastDate %> Any ideas whats wrong? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
