Hello,

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

Thanks.

between view helpers, decorator patterns and ERB in general. 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.

And I'm sure people here knows a few of them. 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.

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.
