Hi dude, I think you did wrong by truncating then html. Besides, when you use ':omission' option, the computed length take in consideration the length of '...(continued)'. The best way to do this would be to create a helper method like truncate_text
truncate_text(text, length, end_text) end_text ||= '' # end_text as an optional parameter new_text = truncate(text, :length => length) new_text = new_text + end_text new_textend And then use it in you r html like this: some_text = "TruncateHtml is just like the vanilla truncate rails helper , TruncateHtml is just like the vanilla truncate rails helper" <ul><li><a href='#'><%= truncate_text(some_text, 15, (continued)) %></a></li></ul> Good luck Lionel 2013/2/5 Maddy <[email protected]> Hi Folks, > > Good evening, > > I used the code which i print below, > > Yes i got the result , but i need the result like this "TruncateHtml is > jus....(continued)" > > some_html = '<ul><li><a href="http://whatever";>TruncateHtml is just like the > vanilla truncate rails helper , TruncateHtml is just like the vanilla > truncate rails helper</a></li></ul>' > > truncate_html(some_html, :length => 15, :omission => '...(continued)') > => <ul><li><a href="http://whatever";>This...(continued)</a></li></ul> > > please advice. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msg/rubyonrails-talk/-/ZMCPdfHXP6sJ. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. > > > -- *lionel Bastian LONKAP TSAMBA* Étudiant 5e année Génie Informatique et Statistiques à Polytech-lille Site: http://first-developer.fr Email: [email protected] Tel: +336 12 48 03 01 -- *lionel Bastian LONKAP TSAMBA* Fifth year student in Software Engineering and Statistics at the Lille University Graduate School of Engineers (Polytech-Lille) Site: http://first-developer.fr Email: [email protected] Phone: +336 12 48 03 01 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
