When using ActionView::Base.new to render templates views

when calling this method to render templates to a string. in order to use any helper methods you need to add them to the view like this

view = ActionView::Base.new(ActionController::Base.view_paths, {})
view.class_eval do  
  # include any needed helpers (for the view)
  include ApplicationHelper
end
