I think something got corrupted in memory and RadRails didn't reload after the corruption. Today (same code) the problem is not there. Yesterday I checked the disk file date.rb and it was uncorrupted but the spurious chars were present. Oh well... lesson learned: shut down RadRails and restart if file corruption is suspected. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
