not

but that tag("p", :ignore => "") still includes it #1465 [michael@schuerig.de] * Fixed that UrlHelper#link_to_unless/link_to_if used html_escape on the name if no link was to be applied.

This means that it's no longer necessary to use the 'model :post' work-around in ApplicationController to have a Post model in your session. *1.9.0* (6 July, 2005) * Added logging of the request URI in the benchmark statement (makes it easy to grep for slow actions) * Added javascript_include_tag :defaults shortcut that'll include all the default javascripts included with Action Pack (prototype, effects, controls, dragdrop) * Cache several controller variables that are expensive to calculate #1229 [skaes@web.de] * The session class backing CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore may be replaced with any class that duck-types with a subset of Active Record.

New product!

") %> <% update_element_function("products", :action => :replace, :binding => binding) do %>

Product 1

Product 2

<% end %> * Added :field_name option to DateHelper#select_(year|month|day) to deviate from the year/month/day defaults #1266 [Marcel Molina] * Added JavascriptHelper#draggable_element and JavascriptHelper#drop_receiving_element to facilitate easy dragging and dropping through the script.aculo.us libraries #1578 [Thomas Fuchs] * Added that UrlHelper#mail_to will now also encode the default link title #749 [f.svehla@gmail.com] * Removed the default option of wrap=virtual on FormHelper#text_area to ensure XHTML compatibility #1300 [thomas@columbus.rr.com] * Adds the ability to include XML CDATA tags using Builder #1563 [Josh Knowles].
