Shared partial working with controller

Hi guys,

iam just wondering, can i use a shared partial with a controller? In my project, i have in my views folder, a shared_partials folder where i put my partials. In my controller eg books_controller i make a search @books= Books.find(:all) and i want to show the results in the partial using the for loop book @books etc . Allthouh this works when i am in the controller views, when i am in the shared_partials views does not works.

Any suggestions? Thanx Kostas L.

Thanx Sijo that worked! I've really forgotten :locals usage!!!
