Hey all,

Here's my situation: I have a pair of controllers with associated
models (called Services and Testimonials) that are quite similar.
Because their CRUD behavior is executed via AJAX, the "templates" for
the actions are all short .rjs files. Now, because of the similarity
of the models, most of the templates are exactly the same, with only
the object names changed. That is, where one looks like this:

page.visual_effect :toggle_slide, 'hidden_testimonial_form'
page.visual_effect :toggle_slide, 'add_testimonial_button'

The other looks like this:

page.visual_effect :toggle_slide, 'hidden_service_form'
page.visual_effect :toggle_slide, 'add_service_button'

Obviously there's no reason these should be separate. My question is,
what's the best way to set these up as shared templates? Both of the
controllers inherit from a third controller (Brochure) because of
shared authentication behavior. But the only way I can think of to
share templates is something like this:

Put template files in /views/brochure.

At the end of each action, explicitly render the template. i.e.

def new
  ...
  render :template => 'brochure/new
end

Is there a better way that I'm missing?
