Partial not passing

Rails
1

Hi there,

I have a partial like this:

<%= render :partial => @person.address %>

and in app/views/addresses/_address.html.erb:

Street: <%= address.street %>

But address in the partial is nil… shouldn’t the local variable
‘address’ be available in the partial? And why is it nil?

Thanks!

Sorry the wrong title, it seems that Safari on windows cut some text on
text fields. The title should be: “Partial not passing local variables”

Did you mean to write render :partial => ‘address’, :object =>
@person.address ?

Doesn’t Rails Edge have this syntax? Now I am confusing… I saw this on
a ticket but now I can’t find it. The right partial is rendered,
although the local variable ‘address’ is nil.

Anyway, using :object works fine, thanks!
