Render Component

I was trying to put my login form on the home page and wanted to document the steps:

Put

<%= render_component :controller => "member", :action => "login", :layout => false, :params => { "member[login]" => "" } %>

in show.rhtml and have the layout turned off.

render (:layout=>false)

The above will not show any layout if placed in a function.

Also see:

# Renders the template for the action "goal" within the current controller
render :action => "goal"

# Renders the template for the action "short_goal" within the current controller,
# but without the current active layout
render :action => "short_goal", :layout => false

# Renders the template for the action "long_goal" within the current controller,
# but with a custom layout
render :action => "long_goal", :layout => "spectacular"
