Hello, How about moving the conditional to a helper in your first example? Just curious to know if you would prefer that approach.
Thanks.

A problem that occurs from time to time is how to build HTML tags with different settings depending on the some states. Here's an example of what I mean. > > <% for @posts.each do |post|%> > <%= content_tag :li, post.title, class: "post #{post.id == 3 ?

However, none seem to really make it easy to build them. So I decided to take a stab at it this weekend and came up with this solution. > > <% for @posts.each do |post|%> > <%= content_tag :li, class: %w(post) do |li| %> > <% if post.id == 3 %> > <% li.css << 'selected' %> > <% end %> > post.title > <% end %> > <% end %> > > All attributes can be either set inline (as previously possible) or through a tag object that is available inside the block. Now, since this might not be really easy to figure out how useful this could be, I created a helper that overrides content_tag() and saved it as a gist for you to test out locally. It's very possible that there's a few bugs as it's the very first version. > > Gist: https://gist.github.com/pothibo/69d60505fa6e44863e52 > > Would this be something RoR:Core would be interested in merging into Rails? > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to rubyonrails-core+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-core@googlegroups.com. > Visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-core. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
