Something weird started happening to me right after the 1.1 came out. I  
have an  
app that has some ajax forms that I manipulate with RJS templates.  
Everything  
was working fine on my deployment server until Rails 1.1. It still  
works fine  
locally, but the ajax interaction just stopped working.

Last night, with the help of FireBug (on of the best Firefox plugins  
ever), I  
noticed the problem. At the end of the javascript returned from the rjs  
template was this text:

Loaded suite dispatch.cgi Started Finished in 0.000233 seconds. 0 tests,  
0  
assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors

I noticed that this shows up since 1.1 at the end of some of the  
generate calls,  
etc., but it also appears during dispatch.cgi (Yes, I know I should be  
running  
fastcgi, but I don’t have complete control of the server — I’m working  
on that  
too). It’s screwing up the execution of the javascript and causing my  
app not  
to work. Is there an easy way to surpress this for now?

Are you using file\_column?

Aha! That explains why I got little response on the IRC channel when I  
tried  
posing the question there as well. Thanks Richard!
