The part that is (probably) causing you to think something's odd is that the view is actually processed first. The result and any 'content_for' sections have been saved before the layout is processed. The main result of the view is inserted where the `yield` is processed and the result of a `content_for :foo` will be inserted if there is a `yield :foo`. -Rob Rob Biedenharn [email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
