working with Blocks

hey

I am able to do:

     block_func(x, y) do       ....      end

But if I try to do this:

     form.block_func(x, y) do       ....      end

I get an error like this:

      syntax error, unexpected ')'       @output_buffer.concat " "; @output_buffer.concat (( form.block_func(x, y) do ).to_s);       @output_buffer.concat "\n"

Any ideas?

thanks

I should mention that I am making these functions myself... to use in a view

Is there something I need to do to get the function working as a model method in a "do" block?

some more context would be useful - at a basic level you don't need to
anything in particular to do this (eg when you're calling fields_for
on a form builder). You might have used <%= when you should have used <%
