Hi All,
I''ve got a bunch of views for Vendors and Users, e.g. app\views\vendors
\index.html.erb:
<h1>Listing vendors</h1>
<div id="menu">
<%= link_to ''Vendor'',
:controller=>''vendors'',
:action=>''index'' %>
<%= link_to ''User'',
:controller=>''users'',
:action=>''index'' %>
</div
<br/>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Nickname</th>
<th>Qbname</th>
</tr>
<% @vendors.each do |vendor| %>
<tr>
<td><%=h vendor.nickname %></td>
[snip]
I pasted the div "menu" into all the views. When I change that menu,
I''ve got to change all of them. Pretty bad, eh?
I''ve also got that menu in app\views\layouts\menu.html.erb.
Can I replace the div I pasted in manually with some kind of "include"
referencing that .erb? I tried a bunch of ways to no avail.
Thanks in Advance,
Richard

Hi Craig, Thanks for your response.> you need to use ''templates'' but this is rather elementalYou''re spot on. This is my first "real" Rails app (for my son who runs a couple of private schools). So I''d like to get this working in a timely but correctly implement fashion. Following your link, I modified my working module app\views\vendors \index.html.erb as follows h1>Listing vendors</h1> <div id="menu"> <%= link_to ''Vendor'', :controller=>''vendors'', :action=>''index'' %> <%= link_to ''User'', :controller=>''users'', :action=>''index'' %> </div <br/> <%= render "shared/menu" %> <br/> [snip] I left in my working menu div and hoping my menu.html.erb or menu.erb files in app\views\shared will be invoked. Sadly, I got: ActionView::MissingTemplate in Vendors#index Showing app/views/vendors/index.html.erb where line #11 raised: Missing template shared/_menu.erb in view path app/views Extracted source (around line #11): 8: </div 9: <br/> 10: 11: <%= render "shared/menu" %> 12: 13: <table> 14: <tr> Can you spot where I erred? Again, thanks in advance for any guidance you may offer.

Thanks again, Craig.
I saw and understood and tried to respond to that message. Following
is the a session in a Command Window on my Win-XP/SP3 system that seem
to provide the alleged missing code:
K:\_Projects\Ruby\_Rails_Apps\_EIMS\RTS>cd app\views\shared
K:\_Projects\Ruby\_Rails_Apps\_EIMS\RTS\app\views\shared>dir
Volume in drive K is K02-100G_NT

I know the message said "menu.erb" but I thought it might not be
up-to-
date with Rails 2.3.5, which I running, along with Ruby 1.8.6.
If you''re up to another look at this, I''d be in your debt.
Best wishes,
Richard

OK Craig, I got it: I missed the _ in the name. Problem solved. Thank you very much for your help.
