This is one of those problems thats probably too simple to be written down somewhere and that is why I cant find it in any help or through google.
I have a model which has a description. This description is entered through a text_area (multiline). For example: === This is line one. This ie line two === Now whenever I want to display this value read-only in one of my views I cant simply do <%= @model.description %>. This will cause the text to be printed as: 'This is line one.This is line two' How do I get the text to be displayed correctly with, I guess, HTML <br/> and other escape characters included? Im sure there should be a helper or something that accomplishes this already in Rails 2.3.2 -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
