I think that's showing a way of maybe overriding existing helpers in the view? What I'm asking is more like this: http://pastie.caboo.se/153392 In the example I actually have "include ApplicationHelper" in there, and am using a method "row_class_for_idx" in the spec. It works. I'm just wondering if that's bad form or not. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
