I would try to explicitly specify the layout for the other actions. If you read the docs, you can sort of infer that no layout will be applied if you explicitly apply a layout to some actions: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/Layout/ClassMethods.html
"This will assign "weblog_standard" as the WeblogController's layout<http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/Layout/ClassMethods.html#M000301>except for the rss action, which will not wrap a layout<http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/Layout/ClassMethods.html#M000301>around the rendered view." Not sure that's the right answer -- just offering. jim jim-rants.com On Wed, Nov 19, 2008 at 10:44 PM, Ivan V. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > > Hi, > > I'm trying to pinpoint what the issue might be here.
