Rails - Sep 2009 - escape_javascript error

Hello,
I am using jQuery for all ajax stuff and recently got following error:

ActionView::TemplateError (private method `gsub'' called for #<Array:
0x2425ae8>) on line #1 of...

and the code where it happens:

$("#notice_ajax").before(''<div
id="notice_ajax"><%= escape_javascript
(flash.delete(:notice)) %></div>'').remove();

when I remove ''escape_javascript'' then everything works fine.

It seems that ''gsub'' thinks that its argument
(flash.delete(:notice))
is an array....??

Any suggestion??

Thanks,
bogumbiker

Check to make sure that the argument contains what it''s supposed to.

No it is a string. As in my initial post if I remove escape_javascript
then the code works fine.
