render js from another controller

Hi all,

In my GamesController I try to render create_or_update.js that is stored in the events view dir. Apparently Rails alwayslooks in the games view dir.

Is there a way I can force Rails to look in the events view dir?

class GamesController < ApplicationController   def create     @event = Game.new(params[:game])     respond_to do |format|       if @event.save         format.js { render :action => '../events/create_or_update' } #doesn't work       end     end   end end

Thanks
