Hi everyone!
Sorry to bother you with a rails newbee question but I can't get this right after a few hours...
If a translation is missing, my application does not show the base_language text:

With http://svn.globalize-rails.org/svn/globalize/trunk (installed on March 13 2008)

In ./config/environment.rb I have

include Globalize
Globalize::DbTranslate.keep_translations_in_model = true
Globalize::Locale.set_base_language('en-US')
LOCALES = {'en' => 'en-US','fr' => 'fr-FR'}.freeze

In ./app/controllers/application.rb I have

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  before_filter :set_locale
  private
  def set_locale
    default_locale = 'en-US'
    request_language = request.env['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE']
    request_language = request_language.nil? ? nil : request_language[/[^,;]+/]
    params_locale = params[:locale] if params[:locale] == 'en-US' or params[:locale] == 'fr-FR'

    @locale = params[:locale] || session[:locale] || request_language || default_locale
    session[:locale] = @locale
    begin
      Locale.set @locale
    rescue
      Locale.set default_locale
    end
  end
end

In ./app/models/category.rb I have

class Category < ActiveRecord::Base
  translates :name, :description
end

I created my categories table with

class CreateCategories < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    create_table :categories do |t|
      t.string :name
      t.string :name_fr
      t.text :description
      t.text :description_fr

      t.timestamps
    end
  end

  def self.down
    drop_table :categories
  end
end

For example, if a name_fr is missing, Globalize does not show the default name. At best I have a blank and in the worth case I have an error, if I try to concatenate the category.name to another string...
Someone can help?
In advance, thank you very much.
