I'm trying to use Textile and ERB together for a website I'm developing. Basically, a sample file looks like: --- <%= produce_some_output "param" %> Here's some *Textile* text. --- I want the ERB code to be evaluated and I also want the Textile markup translated into HTML. How can I do this? Right now I'm doing: s = File.read "myfile.rhtml" result = RedCloth.new(ERB.new(s).result).to_html The problem is that the produce_some_output function prints out the opening <html>, <body>, and <head> tags. RedCloth surrounds this with <p> tags and thus prevents the page from rendering properly. I tried running ERB after RedCloth, but RedCloth converted the quotes in the ERB code to HTML entities. How can I make this work? Bill Atkins
