how to manage errors in ARes?  
Hey all,

I have that function:

def create  
@profile = Profile.new(params[:profile])

```
respond_to do |format|
  if @profile.save
    flash[:notice] = 'Profile was successfully created.'
    format.html { redirect_to profile_url(@profile) }
    format.xml { head :created, :location => profile_url(@profile) 

```

}  
else  
format.html { render :action =\> “new” }  
format.xml { render :xml =\> @profile.errors.to\_xml }  
end  
end  
end

Now when I create a profile from ARes with wrong information, I don’t  
get the same error I would get normally. I only get some http errors,  
not the activeRecord ones, isn’t @profile.errors.to\_xml supposed to  
send me the ActiveRecord errors? if yes, how can I get that errors.xml  
then?

Thanx in advance
