I use observe\_form to monitor a form, whenever a field changed in this  
form, an (Missing template builder/update\_make\_view\_info.js.erb…)  
error will be thrown. I don’t want to use js format. I want to use  
html.erb format. How can I avoid it and why it looks for  
update\_make\_view\_info.js.erb? This is my action code:

def update\_make\_view\_info  
…  
render :patial=\>‘project\_version’  
end

I would be interested in running a template engine to create output in  
any xml-format from Ruby/JRuby.  
I think using the \<%…%\> notation of rails would do, but I don’t want  
this to go to the web, but rather keep  
it in the file system as output.

Best regards
