Rails - Sep 2008 - how can I override a partial from a plugin??? where does "render" look for partials?

Hi,

I''d like to override a particular partial from a plugin.  In fact what
I''d really like to do is somehow "alias" it so I can
effectively add
to the HTML that the partial creates.  So I''d like to effectively do
something like create a bare partial in my own /apps/helpers
directory, the equivalent of alias out the plugin partial *.rhtml,
then call this but then ADD some extra HTML to the result.  This way I
can still do plugin upgrades without having to worry about breaking my
override.

Any suggestions on how to do this?

Thanks in advance

too...thanks
