Looking to embed the html ''right guillemet'' (»)
inside of a link_to reference in my view code...
<%= (role.rights.sort{|a, b| [a.controller, a.action] <=>
[b.controller, b.action]}.collect{|rights| [link_to (rights.controller + "
» " + rights.action, :controller => "rights",
:action => "edit", :id => rights.id)]}).join("<br
/>").html_safe -%>
which results in...
<a href="/rights/edit/53">groups &raquo;
add_member</a><br /><a href="/rights/edit/50">groups
&raquo; create</a><br /><a
href="/rights/edit/54">groups &raquo;
delete_member</a><br /><a
href="/rights/edit/52">groups &raquo; destroy</a>
which is not what I want obviously.
(and yes, I will probably just move this to a helper once I get it working)
Is it possible to embed HTML code inside the ''link_to'' ?

The problem is that the "inner" string is not marked as html_safe. In
your
link_to tag, this string is not considered html_safe:
link_to(*rights.controller + " » " + rights.action*,
:controller
=> "rights", :action => "edit", :id => rights.id)
Colin''s suggestion, which is the solution, is to mark the inner string
as
html_safe. The easiest way to do this is to use the #{} notation instead of
string concatenation:
link_to(*"#{rights.controller} »
#{rights.action}".html_safe*,
:controller => "rights", :action => "edit", :id =>
rights.id)
