Re: Cleanest syntax for form partial?

Bugger!

I had a niggling thought at the back of my mind as I wrote that post that it was the case, but chose to ignore it.

Oh well, render :partial => "form", :f => f looks like the cleanest way for now, unless you don't mind not being Ruby 1.9 compatible, but it will come to bite you in the ass later on.

Cleanliness is in the eye of the beholder.

In any case, beware that Ruby 1.9 disallows using instance variables
as block parameters, so if you're forward thinking this might be a
technique to avoid.
