Rails - Apr 2008 - Why is respond_to always rending the RXML view?

I''m having a problem in Rails 2 where respond_to is always rendering
the
RXML view even in the HTML rendering response.  Can anyone tell me why
this might be happening?  Here''s a code snippet:

respond_to do |accepts|
  accepts.html
  accepts.xml { render :action => ''show.rxml'', :layout
=> false}
end

If I change this to the following it works fine:

respond_to do |accepts|
  accepts.html { render :action => ''show.rhtml'', :layout
=> true }
  accepts.xml { render :action => ''show.rxml'', :layout
=> false }
end

Here''s my setup:

rails (2.0.2)
mongrel (1.1.4)
mongrel_cluster (1.0.5)
apache (2.2.6)

Thanks in advance!

The only idea I have is that maybe you don''t need to use render
:action.
Instead, maybe you should be getting some XML from somewhere (such as
calling #to_xml on a model or collection) and rendering it like this?

respond_to do |accepts|
  accepts.html
  accepts.xml { render :xml => some_model.to_xml }
end
