HAML indentation issues

Question

I'm pretty new to rails and haml.. and I can't get this to work right. I have this partial (_head.html.haml): ``` !!! %html %head %meta{'http-equiv' => 'Content-Type', :content => "text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"} = stylesheet_link_tag 'main' %body ``` And then in my application.html.haml: ``` = render :partial => 'shared/head' #wrapperDIV = yield :layout ``` But the output is not exactly what I intend: ```

``` Obviously `` and `` should wrap #wrapperDIV, but it seems like the partials are not getting put in the right hierarchy.

Accepted Answer

Partials are implicitly closed at the end. They're supposed to be complete sub-objects.

Here's what you want:

```
!!!
%html
  %head
    %meta{'http-equiv' => 'Content-Type', :content => "text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"}
    = stylesheet_link_tag 'main'
  %body
    #wrapperDIV 
      = yield :layout
```

If you wanted to put your `meta` and `stylesheet` calls in a partial, you could do that, but all the tags you have open at the end of a haml document will be closed.
