Can i render :partial a view without leading underscore?

Question

i am facing a precarious condition here. I need to partially render a page that does not have a leading underscore.

<%= render(:partial => \"contact\" ,:co

You should not try to bypass the conventions if not really necessary. I guess contact.html.erb contains a form. Put this into app/views/home/_contact.html.erb and render it in app/views/home/contact.html.erb.

Or as fl00r answered:

<%= render :file => '/homes/contact' %>
