I''m trying to use a partial from within Markaby. I haven''t been able to figure out how to access a parameter passed into the partial.

It will reference models within the rails app, and It may be run manually, or may be scheduled via Cron (though I may look at RailsCron as well). I''ve seen help on the Wiki for using models outside of Rails (like this

I''m playing around with Markaby and I decided to write a little blog app. I''m running into issues with forms however. If I use form_for the output of the form gets swallowed. For example: form_for :article, @article do |f| f.text_field :title f.check_box :published f.text_area :description f.text_field :pub_date f.text_area :content end gets rendered as an empty form
