Rails - Mar 2007 - Issue generating XML with hyphenated element names

Hello...

I''m trying to generate and XML file using .rxml and I''m having
a
problem with element names that contain a hyphen.  Here is a chunk of
the .rxml file:

xml.instruct! :xml, :version=>"1.0"
xml.properties do
	@properties.each do |p|
		xml.property do
			xml.location do
				xml.street-address(p.street_address)
				xml.city-name(p.city)
				..
			end
		end
	end
end

As soon as the code hits the street-address line, a NoMethodError is
thrown:

undefined method `address'' for
#<#<Class:0x664ede8>:0x664edc0>

Any idea how to fix this?  The hyphens are dictated by the client,
thus I can''t change that.

Thanks,
Jeff

That''s in one of the Pragmatic books IIRC.

Thanks, that worked.  To show the data within the element, use:

xml.tag!("street-address", p.street_address)
