-      #
-      # === Rendering an action
-      #
-      # Action rendering is the most common form and the type used automatically by Action Controller when nothing else is
-      # specified. By default, actions are rendered within the current layout (if one exists).
-      #
-      #   # 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"
-      #
-      # === Rendering partials
-      #
-      # Partial rendering in a controller is most commonly used together with Ajax calls that only update one or a few elements on a page
-      # without reloading. Rendering of partials from the controller makes it possible to use the same partial template in
-      # both the full-page rendering (by calling it from within the template) and when sub-page updates happen (from the
-      # controller action responding to Ajax calls). By default, the current layout is not used.
-      #
-      #   # Renders the same partial with a local variable.
-      #   render :partial => "person", :locals => { :name => "david" }
-      #
-      #   # Renders the partial, making @new_person available through
-      #   # the local variable 'person'
-      #   render :partial => "person", :object => @new_person
-      #
-      #   # Renders a collection of the same partial by making each element
-      #   # of @winners available through the local variable "person" as it
-      #   # builds the complete response.
-      #   render :partial => "person", :collection => @winners
-      #
-      #   # Renders a collection of partials but with a custom local variable name
-      #   render :partial => "admin_person", :collection => @winners, :as => :person
-      #
-      #   # Renders the same collection of partials, but also renders the
-      #   # person_divider partial between each person partial.
-      #   render :partial => "person", :collection => @winners, :spacer_template => "person_divider"
-      #
-      #   # Renders a collection of partials located in a view subfolder
-      #   # outside of our current controller.  In this example we will be
-      #   # rendering app/views/shared/_note.r(html|xml)  Inside the partial
-      #   # each element of @new_notes is available as the local var "note".
-      #   render :partial => "shared/note", :collection => @new_notes
-      #
-      #   # Renders the partial with a status code of 500 (internal error).
-      #   render :partial => "broken", :status => 500
-      #
-      # Note that the partial filename must also be a valid Ruby variable name,
-      # so e.g. 2005 and register-user are invalid.
-      #
-      #
-      # == Automatic etagging
-      #
-      # Rendering will automatically insert the etag header on 200 OK responses. The etag is calculated using MD5 of the
-      # response body. If a request comes in that has a matching etag, the response will be changed to a 304 Not Modified
-      # and the response body will be set to an empty string. No etag header will be inserted if it's already set.
-      #
-      # === Rendering a template
-      #
-      # Template rendering works just like action rendering except that it takes a path relative to the template root.
-      # The current layout is automatically applied.
-      #
-      #   # Renders the template located in [TEMPLATE_ROOT]/weblog/show.r(html|xml) (in Rails, app/views/weblog/show.erb)
-      #   render :template => "weblog/show"
-      #
-      #   # Renders the template with a local variable
-      #   render :template => "weblog/show", :locals => {:customer => Customer.new}
-      #
-      # === Rendering a file
-      #
-      # File rendering works just like action rendering except that it takes a filesystem path. By default, the path
-      # is assumed to be absolute, and the current layout is not applied.
-      #
-      #   # Renders the template located at the absolute filesystem path
-      #   render :file => "/path/to/some/template.erb"
-      #   render :file => "c:/path/to/some/template.erb"
-      #
-      #   # Renders a template within the current layout, and with a 404 status code
-      #   render :file => "/path/to/some/template.erb", :layout => true, :status => 404
-      #   render :file => "c:/path/to/some/template.erb", :layout => true, :status => 404
-      #
-      # === Rendering text
-      #
-      # Rendering of text is usually used for tests or for rendering prepared content, such as a cache. By default, text
-      # rendering is not done within the active layout.
-      #
-      #   # Renders the clear text "hello world" with status code 200
-      #   render :text => "hello world!"
-      #
-      #   # Renders the clear text "Explosion!"  with status code 500
-      #   render :text => "Explosion!", :status => 500
-      #
-      #   # Renders the clear text "Hi there!" within the current active layout (if one exists)
-      #   render :text => "Hi there!", :layout => true
-      #
-      #   # Renders the clear text "Hi there!" within the layout
-      #   # placed in "app/views/layouts/special.r(html|xml)"
-      #   render :text => "Hi there!", :layout => "special"
-      #
-      # === Streaming data and/or controlling the page generation
-      #
-      # The <tt>:text</tt> option can also accept a Proc object, which can be used to:
-      #
-      # 1. stream on-the-fly generated data to the browser. Note that you should
-      #    use the methods provided by ActionController::Steaming instead if you
-      #    want to stream a buffer or a file.
-      # 2. manually control the page generation. This should generally be avoided,
-      #    as it violates the separation between code and content, and because almost
-      #    everything that can be done with this method can also be done more cleanly
-      #    using one of the other rendering methods, most notably templates.
-      #
-      # Two arguments are passed to the proc, a <tt>response</tt> object and an
-      # <tt>output</tt> object. The response object is equivalent to the return
-      # value of the ActionController::Base#response method, and can be used to
-      # control various things in the HTTP response, such as setting the
-      # Content-Type header. The output object is an writable <tt>IO</tt>-like
-      # object, so one can call <tt>write</tt> and <tt>flush</tt> on it.
-      #
-      # The following example demonstrates how one can stream a large amount of
-      # on-the-fly generated data to the browser:
-      #
-      #   # Streams about 180 MB of generated data to the browser.
-      #   render :text => proc { |response, output|
-      #     10_000_000.times do |i|
-      #       output.write("This is line #{i}\n")
-      #       output.flush
-      #     end
-      #   }
-      #
-      # Another example:
-      #
-      #   # Renders "Hello from code!"
-      #   render :text => proc { |response, output| output.write("Hello from code!") }
-      #
-      # === Rendering XML
-      #
-      # Rendering XML sets the content type to application/xml.
-      #
-      #   # Renders '<name>David</name>'
-      #   render :xml => {:name => "David"}.to_xml
-      #
-      # It's not necessary to call <tt>to_xml</tt> on the object you want to render, since <tt>render</tt> will
-      # automatically do that for you:
-      #
-      #   # Also renders '<name>David</name>'
-      #   render :xml => {:name => "David"}
-      #
-      # === Rendering JSON
-      #
-      # Rendering JSON sets the content type to application/json and optionally wraps the JSON in a callback. It is expected
-      # that the response will be parsed (or eval'd) for use as a data structure.
-      #
-      #   # Renders '{"name": "David"}'
-      #   render :json => {:name => "David"}.to_json
-      #
-      # It's not necessary to call <tt>to_json</tt> on the object you want to render, since <tt>render</tt> will
-      # automatically do that for you:
-      #
-      #   # Also renders '{"name": "David"}'
-      #   render :json => {:name => "David"}
-      #
-      # Sometimes the result isn't handled directly by a script (such as when the request comes from a SCRIPT tag),
-      # so the <tt>:callback</tt> option is provided for these cases.
-      #
-      #   # Renders 'show({"name": "David"})'
-      #   render :json => {:name => "David"}.to_json, :callback => 'show'
-      #
-      # === Rendering an inline template
-      #
-      # Rendering of an inline template works as a cross between text and action rendering where the source for the template
-      # is supplied inline, like text, but its interpreted with ERb or Builder, like action. By default, ERb is used for rendering
-      # and the current layout is not used.
-      #
-      #   # Renders "hello, hello, hello, again"
-      #   render :inline => "<%= 'hello, ' * 3 + 'again' %>"
-      #
-      #   # Renders "<p>Good seeing you!</p>" using Builder
-      #   render :inline => "xml.p { 'Good seeing you!' }", :type => :builder
-      #
-      #   # Renders "hello david"
-      #   render :inline => "<%= 'hello ' + name %>", :locals => { :name => "david" }
-      #
-      # === Rendering inline JavaScriptGenerator page updates
-      #
-      # In addition to rendering JavaScriptGenerator page updates with Ajax in RJS templates (see ActionView::Base for details),
-      # you can also pass the <tt>:update</tt> parameter to +render+, along with a block, to render page updates inline.
-      #
-      #   render :update do |page|
-      #     page.replace_html  'user_list', :partial => 'user', :collection => @users
-      #     page.visual_effect :highlight, 'user_list'
-      #   end
-      #
-      # === Rendering vanilla JavaScript
-      #
-      # In addition to using RJS with render :update, you can also just render vanilla JavaScript with :js.
-      #
-      #   # Renders "alert('hello')" and sets the mime type to text/javascript
-      #   render :js => "alert('hello')"
-      #
-      # === Rendering with status and location headers
-      # All renders take the <tt>:status</tt> and <tt>:location</tt> options and turn them into headers. They can even be used together:
-      #
-      #   render :xml => post.to_xml, :status => :created, :location => post_url(post)

+    # Renders the content that will be returned to the browser as the response body.
+    #
+    # === Rendering an action
+    #
+    # Action rendering is the most common form and the type used automatically by Action Controller when nothing else is
+    # specified. By default, actions are rendered within the current layout (if one exists).
+    #
+    #   # 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"
+    #
+    # === Rendering partials
+    #
+    # Partial rendering in a controller is most commonly used together with Ajax calls that only update one or a few elements on a page
+    # without reloading. Rendering of partials from the controller makes it possible to use the same partial template in
+    # both the full-page rendering (by calling it from within the template) and when sub-page updates happen (from the
+    # controller action responding to Ajax calls). By default, the current layout is not used.
+    #
+    #   # Renders the same partial with a local variable.
+    #   render :partial => "person", :locals => { :name => "david" }
+    #
+    #   # Renders the partial, making @new_person available through
+    #   # the local variable 'person'
+    #   render :partial => "person", :object => @new_person
+    #
+    #   # Renders a collection of the same partial by making each element
+    #   # of @winners available through the local variable "person" as it
+    #   # builds the complete response.
+    #   render :partial => "person", :collection => @winners
+    #
+    #   # Renders a collection of partials but with a custom local variable name
+    #   render :partial => "admin_person", :collection => @winners, :as => :person
+    #
+    #   # Renders the same collection of partials, but also renders the
+    #   # person_divider partial between each person partial.
+    #   render :partial => "person", :collection => @winners, :spacer_template => "person_divider"
+    #
+    #   # Renders a collection of partials located in a view subfolder
+    #   # outside of our current controller.  In this example we will be
+    #   # rendering app/views/shared/_note.r(html|xml)  Inside the partial
+    #   # each element of @new_notes is available as the local var "note".
+    #   render :partial => "shared/note", :collection => @new_notes
+    #
+    #   # Renders the partial with a status code of 500 (internal error).
+    #   render :partial => "broken", :status => 500
+    #
+    # Note that the partial filename must also be a valid Ruby variable name,
+    # so e.g. 2005 and register-user are invalid.
+    #
+    #
+    # == Automatic etagging
+    #
+    # Rendering will automatically insert the etag header on 200 OK responses. The etag is calculated using MD5 of the
+    # response body. If a request comes in that has a matching etag, the response will be changed to a 304 Not Modified
+    # and the response body will be set to an empty string. No etag header will be inserted if it's already set.
+    #
+    # === Rendering a template
+    #
+    # Template rendering works just like action rendering except that it takes a path relative to the template root.
+    # The current layout is automatically applied.
+    #
+    #   # Renders the template located in [TEMPLATE_ROOT]/weblog/show.r(html|xml) (in Rails, app/views/weblog/show.erb)
+    #   render :template => "weblog/show"
+    #
+    #   # Renders the template with a local variable
+    #   render :template => "weblog/show", :locals => {:customer => Customer.new}
+    #
+    # === Rendering a file
+    #
+    # File rendering works just like action rendering except that it takes a filesystem path. By default, the path
+    # is assumed to be absolute, and the current layout is not applied.
+    #
+    #   # Renders the template located at the absolute filesystem path
+    #   render :file => "/path/to/some/template.erb"
+    #   render :file => "c:/path/to/some/template.erb"
+    #
+    #   # Renders a template within the current layout, and with a 404 status code
+    #   render :file => "/path/to/some/template.erb", :layout => true, :status => 404
+    #   render :file => "c:/path/to/some/template.erb", :layout => true, :status => 404
+    #
+    # === Rendering text
+    #
+    # Rendering of text is usually used for tests or for rendering prepared content, such as a cache. By default, text
+    # rendering is not done within the active layout.
+    #
+    #   # Renders the clear text "hello world" with status code 200
+    #   render :text => "hello world!"
+    #
+    #   # Renders the clear text "Explosion!"  with status code 500
+    #   render :text => "Explosion!", :status => 500
+    #
+    #   # Renders the clear text "Hi there!" within the current active layout (if one exists)
+    #   render :text => "Hi there!", :layout => true
+    #
+    #   # Renders the clear text "Hi there!" within the layout
+    #   # placed in "app/views/layouts/special.r(html|xml)"
+    #   render :text => "Hi there!", :layout => "special"
+    #
+    # The <tt>:text</tt> option can also accept a Proc object, which can be used to manually control the page generation. This should
+    # generally be avoided, as it violates the separation between code and content, and because almost everything that can be
+    # done with this method can also be done more cleanly using one of the other rendering methods, most notably templates.
+    #
+    #   # Renders "Hello from code!"
+    #   render :text => proc { |response, output| output.write("Hello from code!") }
+    #
+    # === Rendering XML
+    #
+    # Rendering XML sets the content type to application/xml.
+    #
+    #   # Renders '<name>David</name>'
+    #   render :xml => {:name => "David"}.to_xml
+    #
+    # It's not necessary to call <tt>to_xml</tt> on the object you want to render, since <tt>render</tt> will
+    # automatically do that for you:
+    #
+    #   # Also renders '<name>David</name>'
+    #   render :xml => {:name => "David"}
+    #
+    # === Rendering JSON
+    #
+    # Rendering JSON sets the content type to application/json and optionally wraps the JSON in a callback. It is expected
+    # that the response will be parsed (or eval'd) for use as a data structure.
+    #
+    #   # Renders '{"name": "David"}'
+    #   render :json => {:name => "David"}.to_json
+    #
+    # It's not necessary to call <tt>to_json</tt> on the object you want to render, since <tt>render</tt> will
+    # automatically do that for you:
+    #
+    #   # Also renders '{"name": "David"}'
+    #   render :json => {:name => "David"}
+    #
+    # Sometimes the result isn't handled directly by a script (such as when the request comes from a SCRIPT tag),
+    # so the <tt>:callback</tt> option is provided for these cases.
+    #
+    #   # Renders 'show({"name": "David"})'
+    #   render :json => {:name => "David"}.to_json, :callback => 'show'
+    #
+    # === Rendering an inline template
+    #
+    # Rendering of an inline template works as a cross between text and action rendering where the source for the template
+    # is supplied inline, like text, but its interpreted with ERb or Builder, like action. By default, ERb is used for rendering
+    # and the current layout is not used.
+    #
+    #   # Renders "hello, hello, hello, again"
+    #   render :inline => "<%= 'hello, ' * 3 + 'again' %>"
+    #
+    #   # Renders "<p>Good seeing you!</p>" using Builder
+    #   render :inline => "xml.p { 'Good seeing you!' }", :type => :builder
+    #
+    #   # Renders "hello david"
+    #   render :inline => "<%= 'hello ' + name %>", :locals => { :name => "david" }
+    #
+    # === Rendering inline JavaScriptGenerator page updates
+    #
+    # In addition to rendering JavaScriptGenerator page updates with Ajax in RJS templates (see ActionView::Base for details),
+    # you can also pass the <tt>:update</tt> parameter to +render+, along with a block, to render page updates inline.
+    #
+    #   render :update do |page|
+    #     page.replace_html  'user_list', :partial => 'user', :collection => @users
+    #     page.visual_effect :highlight, 'user_list'
+    #   end
+    #
+    # === Rendering vanilla JavaScript
+    #
+    # In addition to using RJS with render :update, you can also just render vanilla JavaScript with :js.
+    #
+    #   # Renders "alert('hello')" and sets the mime type to text/javascript
+    #   render :js => "alert('hello')"
+    #
+    # === Rendering with status and location headers
+    # All renders take the <tt>:status</tt> and <tt>:location</tt> options and turn them into headers. They can even be used together:
+    #
+    #   render :xml => post.to_xml, :status => :created, :location => post_url(post)

-      # the elements of the array.
+      # the elements of the array. For each item with a checked check box you
+      # get an extra ghost item with only that attribute, assigned to "0".

+      # hashes instead of arrays.

       #
       #   # Let's say that @puppy.gooddog is "no":
       #   check_box("puppy", "gooddog", {}, "yes", "no")
