Messages in flash don't clear out on next request

Rails
1

I have a Rails application here that when I display a message to the
user using flash[:notice], flash[:warning], flash[:message], etc. the
message doesn’t get cleared out on the subsequent get request. So if I
display a message, then go off to the next page, the message is still
there. On the second request the messages go away. Is there a way to
fix this?

maybe…

now()

Sets a flash that will not be available to the next action, only to the
current.

 flash.now[:message] = "Hello current action"

This method enables you to use the flash as a central messaging system
in
your app. When you need to pass an object to the next action, you use
the
standard flash assign ([]=). When you need to pass an object to the
current action, you use now, and your object will vanish when the
current
action is done.

Entries set via now are accessed the same way as standard entries:
flash[‘my-key’].
