Ruby on Rails

Hi everybody,

First, sorry for my poor english, I will try to be clear :)

I'm wondering what are the best practices in order to obtain a view showing data on a parent object, with sub-tabs, each tab for a nested resource.

Imagine that you have a Contact model. Each contact has :

•  documents,
  
• participations to meetings,
  
•  comments (which could be polymorphic)
  
•  ...
  

When you access to the show page of the contact, you'd like to see contact information at the top of the page, and under these information, a tab-bar, each tab for each nested-resource : documents, meetings, comments, ...

Ho do you do this kind of layouts / views ?

A friend explain me that I can use the inherited_resources gem, which is really useful to abstract and handle nested_controllers, but I still don't find a good solution for the layouts/view.

Thank you by advance
