Any thoughts on how I could accomplish this then? Being new to Ruby and Rails 
I'm struggling to determine what my options are.

Basically what I'm trying to do is swap out my right column depending on where 
you are in the site. If you are on an article list page I want the right column 
to have links to other categories, search, etc but once you drill in to an 
article I want to have that all go away and to display what is essentially meta 
data about the article (ie: title, posted by, tags, categories, comments, 
trackbacks, etc).

Is this something that I could do somehow with a controller action that 
determine which view to return? I could then create partial views that include 
the necessary logic.

Does this make sense? How should I go about starting this?

Is there another way? A better way? I'm open to options. Trying to learn here 
so I apologize for all the questions.

Thanks.

I am already overriding the "read" view as it is. What I need to do now is also override the over arching layout. I have a layout named default that is used for everything currently, but now I want to create a different layout
for the article detail.
