Hi,

We generally use different layouts/themes for our accounts of gmail/  
orkut. In the same i want my rails application to use different  
layouts choosen by a user.

All templates are saved in db and user can view all templates and  
apply them for their pages.  
So is there any plugin in rails to use dynamic layouts ?  
So anyone can suggest me in doing module .
