Rails - Sep 2013 - Translate tag (I18n.t) in ruby on rails not having CSS formatting applied

Hello,

I''ve got the following piece of code:-

%section#download
  %h1= t "section.title"  
  .content
    %p 
    = I18n.t "section.first_box.first" 

in name.html.erb file.

But I noticed that the css formatting that would apply to the %p tag no 
longer applies because of the internationalization tag I18n.t. Does anyone 
know how I can make sure that the text being translated 
"section.first_box.first" will preserve it''s css formatting
and not have it
removed because of the I18n.t tag?

I''m a Rails newbie

Thanks

Angela

This isn''t related to the use of i18n ( as a shortcut you can use just
''t''
in views instead of I18n.t). As it stands the indentation in your haml file 
will put the internationalized text outside of the p tag, so the css rules 
for p tags won''t be used.

The problem is that the CSS formatting for the translated part is contained
in the p tag and that''s what I''d like preserved.

Or would you suggest creating a new tag for the translated text in the CSS
file with the same formatting as the p tag and then applying it that way?

Thanks

Can you write out, in HTML, how you want the final code to appear? The use of
HAML may be confusing things here.

At the moment your haml is resulting in markup that looks like


<div class="content">
  <p></p>
  Translated text here
</div>

So it should be clear why the style rules for p have no effect. What I was
trying to say was that for the translated text to be inside the p element you
need to indent it, that is

%p
  = I18n.t(...)

Or perhaps I''ve got the wrong end of the stick and you should spell out
what you''re trying to do, as Walter suggests.
