Restrict application layout for certain views

Hi folks

Is there any way to change / restrict the application layout for certain views?

For example, I don't want to render the header for a certain view, is there any code such as:

<% if View != show.html.erb%> <%= render 'layouts/header' %> <% end %>

Thanks in advance

Jason

You could just set some session variable at the point of controller => show. And test at your rendering. However, I think that you are better off studying and learning methods associated with your Controller middleware… Liz

You can do that by specifying the layout in the controller. See:
