I have a partial, _flash.html.haml

- flash.each do |type, value|
  .flash{ :class => type.to_s }
    = value

Which I'm rendering from a view using

=render :partial => "flash"

Which complains that the flash hash is nil/undefined. However, when I do this:

=render :partial => "flash", :locals => {:flash => flash}

It works.

Why doesn't the partial have access to the flash message?
