[rspec-users] response is null when using should_render_rjs

[Michael Johnston]

I had tried it without :page and got the same error, and I also  
switched to the syntax you suggested but still get the same error. So  
something else is going on there. When I have time I'll sandbox it  
and try to track it down.

For now unfortunately I have to switch from my newly burgeoning BDD  
mode to my tried-and-true SSCT* mode.

Thanks,
Michael

*show something [to the] client tomorrow
