You are going to have to start simple and understand the mechanics of rails before you continue any further.
Your first item of the day should be learning more about rails: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/ As for your question about how layouts work with rails...

Inside of this file you would place something similar: http://gist.github.com/285321 The yield is where your content will go from your views. This is a very bare bones idea of a layout I'm showing.

You'll have to go visit http://guides.rubyonrails.org/ in order to read more about rails and what you want to accomplish. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
