Child with partial failed to render

[shmeltex]

If following syntax is used in template

child(:@notes => :data, :partial => 'notes/_single')

Child element will produce no output.

Workaround is

child({:@notes => :data}, :partial => 'notes/_single')

Yes it is a normal issue. child method expects two arguments but with your first example, Ruby parser only sees one hash so it will produce no output.

You can use { ... } to clearly separate the two hashes or you can change this to a clearer syntax :

child(:@notes, :root => :data, :partial => 'notes/_single')

I'll check is there is a clean way to accept your first example as a valid syntax

I'll close this issue since it's a normal syntax error. You need to put curly braces to separate the two argument hashes. Thanks for reporting the issue anyway.
