I am getting a blank page, no errors, just a blank page.
I have 2 files...
reports/city_taxes_print.erb
reports/_city_taxes_print.erb
and my method is city_taxes_print and after getting variables from the
controller, my erb file which is fairly basic...
<% # City of Scottsdale
@taxauthids = [ "32", "40" ]
@report_title = "Scottsdale Sales Tax Detail Report for the Period
Ending " + @period.lastdate_in_period.strftime("%m-%d-%Y")
@taxes = Debtortranstaxes.find(:all, :conditions => ["trandate
BETWEEN :begin AND :end AND taxauthid IN (:ids)", {:begin => @per1, :end
=> @per2, :ids => @taxauthids}],
:joins => ''LEFT JOIN debtortrans ON
debtortrans.id=debtortransid'',
:include => ''debtortrans'',
:select => ''debtorno, trandate, transno, ovamount, taxamount,
taxauthid'',
:order => ''trandate, transno'')
render :partial => ''reports/city_taxes_print.erb''
%>
but it only renders a blank page and there are quite a few things in
_city_taxes_print.erb that should be rendering.
development.log shows everything working as normal, code 200 (success),
SQL query looks right.
I am looking at the API for rails and I can''t see anything that has
changed since 1.2.x that would make this not work for me.
Can anyone suggest why I am getting a blank partial?

The concept is to have one ''method'' print several different pages with different criteria for each ''partial'' and using css div''s to ''page-break-after'' each one so that the result was multi-paged html. This actually worked for me in 1.2.x but I am only getting the last page in 2.3.2. ;-( The controller only allows a single ''render'' command per method.

I saw inside the firebug. <br>
The value of the field ("texto") is :<br>
<br>
" example line 1 \r\n line 2 without enter \n line 3 with
enter"<br>
<br>
So I conclude that the "wrapped" lines return with "\r\n"
mark. <br>
No problem but my original function splits by "\n" mark:<br>
<pre wrap="">lines = texto.split(/\n/).size if texto !=nil
But Oooooppppssss the result is again 2. Split function only work with
"\n" mark alone. Do not when then "\n" mark have a folk mark
"\r" by it side ?
</pre>
<br>
I am preparing to kill "\r" marks.....(only inside the
"texto" field...)<br>

In the log you should see something along the lines of this, but with
