Hookup to partial template fails - Why?

Rails
1

Hi All,

In app\views\home\Start.rhtml, the following code produces a list of
customer links:

    <% @customers.each do |c| %>
  • <%= link_to(c.name, :controller => 'customer', :action => 'show', :id => c.id) %>
    • <% end %>

But when I substitute:

<%= render :partial => customer/list %>

Rails complains:
undefined local variable or method ‘customer’

I’ve got app\views\customer_list.rhtml defined as:

    <% @customers.each do |c| %>
  • <%= link_to(c.name, :controller => 'customer', :action => 'show', :id => c.id) %>
    • <% end %>

I’ve got _form, edit, etc. .rhtml files defined in that folder, as well.

Can you tell why I can’t get the partial template to work?

Incidentally, I tried to use a helper function link_to_customer(c) in
the
code above, but I disabled it because I couldn’t get that to work
either.
But I’ll save that issue for another day :slight_smile:

Thanks in Advance,
Richard

You have:

<%= render :partial => customer/list %>

I think you need:

<%= render :partial => “customer/list” %>

Hi Terry and Nathan,

‘customer/list’

That did it!! I spent a day trying to figure out the cause of my
problem.
You guys solved it in an instant!

Thank you very much.
