Can I add additional ruby files to the model?

Hi all,

Good day.
Can I add an additional ruby file to the model of my RhoMobile App?
For instance I have a model called Product and it has edit.erb, index.erb, new.erb, show.erb by default.
If I have additional view, like show location, can I create show_location.erb and put it to Product folder?

I have this search_box function at product_controller.rb, which contains the following code fragment:
  def search_box
    @product = Product.find(:all, :conditions =>{'box_id' => @params['box_id']})
    #@product = Product.find(@params['box_id']);
    @err_msg = ""
    if @product
      redirect :action => :show_location
    else
      @err_msg = "Box ID not found!"
      render :action => :index
    end
  end

When i try to execute this code, i always get server internal error and show_location.erb was not able to rendered.

Please help.

Many thanks.

Regards,
Kelly

Sure, it should work.

While you would almost always have a controller method for it, and use render in that method, if you do not have a show_location controller method, it will just render the ERB with the matching file name.

Exactly what error message did you get?
