Rails '.js.erb' not rendering partial

Question

So, i'm working with rails 3.2.13 and what i'm trying to do is render a partial and then append it to a div using jquery:

$("#notifications").append("<%=raw escape_javascript(render('layouts/notification')) %>");

what it does right now, is it appends it to the right div but it doesn't render the partial or anything, it just renders the rails code as a string.. I don't know what i'm doing wrong but i bet its something silly that i'm missing.

Any help would be appreciated thanks

Try render_to_string instead of just render

if its a regular partial(under the same view) then:-

$("#notifications").append("<%= escape_javascript(render(:partial => 'notification')) %>");

else

$("#notifications").append("<%= escape_javascript(render(:partial => 'layouts/notification')) %>");

@RAJ... why are you using raw or html_safe when you are rendering a partial?
