Hey, i am currently upgrading a Rails 2.1 app to 2.3 to benefit from Rails engines. The app requires rendering javascript updates to strings, which does not work with 2.3 anymore: data ActionView::Base.new(Rails::Configuration.new.view_path).render(:update) do |page| page["div[id=''foo'']"].removeClass("bar") end whihc results in an error because the @template variable is nil. /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.12/lib/active_support/ whiny_nil.rb:52:in `method_missing'': undefined method `with_output_buffer'' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.3.12/lib/action_view/ helpers/prototype_helper.rb:577:in `initialize'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.3.12/lib/action_view/ helpers/prototype_helper.rb:1029:in `new'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.3.12/lib/action_view/ helpers/prototype_helper.rb:1029:in `update_page'' from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-2.3.12/lib/action_view/ base.rb:274:in `render'' ... I am not a rails intern and have problems to follow the @template variable construction. Has anyone an idea of how to get the code working again with 2.3?
