I have a menu controller that has the configuration for the menus in my web. Each action is a menu and I have a function "opcion" that creates options that are stored in an array @opciones this way: [{:nombre => "name",:controller => "controller", :action=> "action"}...] This array is later used in the view to create link_to items. In this code I have the menu "secciones" with three options: def secciones @opciones = Array.new @opciones << opcion("LifeSTech","lst","index") @opciones << opcion("Investigacion","investigacion","index") @opciones << opcion("Publicaciones","publicacion","index") end private def opcion(nombre,controller,action) return {:nombre => nombre, :controller => controller, :action=> action} end In the view "secciones.rhtml" I have: <% @opciones.each do |opcion| %> <%= link_to opcion[:nombre], {:controller => opcion[:controller],:action => opcion[:action]}, :class => "enlaces_contenidos"%> <% end %> This works perfectly if I have no accents, but if I use "Investigacion" instead of "Investigación" it gives me this error: ./script/../config/../app/controllers/menu_controller.rb:7: syntax error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting '')'' @opciones << opcion("Investigación","investigacion"_->parsererror<- _,"index") _->parsererror<-_ marks the point where the parser crashes The file is ANSI but I''ve tried with UTF-8 and I have not solved the question. I think the problem is specific to rails 1.2.* because this code works with accents in 1.1 with this code in the application.rb: after_filter :set_charset def set_charset headers["Content-Type"] ||= "text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" end This code does not work anymore with rails 1.2. I would appreciate any help. Thank you --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
