Hi,

I’m running Rails 2.0.2 over Ruby 1.8.6 on WinXP-Pro/SP3.

I created a CRUD Rails app using scaffolding. The app runs fine. In  
order to understand the flow of control in the app, I inserted about  
a half-dozen “logger” statements.

In particular, I surrounded the “yield” statement in payrolls.html.erb  
with loggers and found that nothing wrote to log between them. What  
block is “yield” supposed to invoke in a virgin CRUD application?

TIA,  
Richard

You’d be more likely to get a useful answer from a Rails mailing list -  
see [Ruby on Rails — Community](http://www.rubyonrails.com/community)

This list is for Ruby (the programming language), not Rails (an  
application/framework which happens to be written in Ruby)
