Has anyone else experienced this? I just spent a while tracking down what I assumed was a problem in my have_tag only to

hello list! I like merb a lot, it frees me from dropping to mongrel every time i want to stream something. i have an action which will stream a list of JSON objects (separated by semicolons). unfortunately because of Mongrel''s write-only header hash, once a Content-Length header has been written, I can never again tell it to not send such a thing - and streaming doesn''t work if

Long story short, I want specific links to look differently from others, but all of them being link_to_function. Normally, I''d do this with adding a class="foo" to
