Hi Mark Definitely sounds like something to do with the order of loading (and yes, your demo app fails for me too). I'm *supposed* to be sorting out my RailsConf tutorial content at the moment, so I really shouldn't spend time digging into this at the moment.
But, a vague description of my approach: go hunting through Rails source, find out when the environment is prepared (ie: when TS manually reloads models), and when the I18n YAML file is parsed. I'm assuming the former happens before the latter, and it really should be the other way around... so if there's some later event hook we can tie the TS loading to, that'd hopefully make things better. -- Pat On 24/04/2009, at 2:37 PM, DrMark wrote: > > Ok.
