In the controller
@properties = Property.paginate :page => params[:page], :order =>
''created_at DESC''
in the view
I have tried
<% if !$properties.blank? %>
<%= render :partial => "show_properties_list" %>
<%else%>
<h3>no records found</h3>
<%end%>
but it did not work
also, I have tried empty? and not [] {}
all of them did not work
could someone tell me what I am doing wrong

Hey Mohammed, You''ve used a $ sigil instead of @ Also, to maybe help it read better, don''t use the ! (not) and then you can change the contents of the if, else parts. As a developer, that reads better. More intuitive. Just my opinion. <% if @properties.blank? %> <h3>no records found</h3> <%else%> <%= render :partial => "show_properties_list" %> <%end%> On 4 May 2010 23:32, Michael Pavling <pavling-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> On 4 May 2010 22:16, Mohammed Alenazi <vb4max-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > <% if !$properties.blank? %> > > You might want to change the dollar sign to an @ > <% if !@properties.blank? %> > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFF+G/Ez6ZCGd0@public.gmane.org > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rubyonrails-talk+unsubscribe-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org<rubyonrails-talk%2Bunsubscribe-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > >-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

personally, I find @properties.present? to be more readable than !@properties.blank? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
