Styling rails elements

I''m having some trouble with styling my views.

Here is a particular snippet that I think illustrates well:

<%= @tour_request.booked_datetime ? "Confirmed
For:
<span
class="red">#{@tour_request.booked_datetime_string}
":"Date and time requested:
#{@tour_request.daterequested} | #{@tour_request.preferredtime_string}
Alternative date and time requested:
#{@tour_request.altdaterequested} #{@tour_request.preferredtime_string}"
%>

That will prevent the page from loading, showing a custom error screen.

But this, will display fine:

<%= @tour_request.booked_datetime ? "Confirmed
For:
#{@tour_request.booked_datetime_string}
":"Date
and time requested: #{@tour_request.daterequested} |
#{@tour_request.preferredtime_string} Alternative date and time
requested: #{@tour_request.altdaterequested}
#{@tour_request.preferredtime_string}" %>

The only difference is on the first example I had <span
class="red">#{@tour_request.booked_datetime_string}
and the
second I had
#{@tour_request.booked_datetime_string}

I know I could just do <span
class="red"><%@tour_request.booked_datetime_string %> but
this field won''t always be
displaying, so I need to find a way to make whichever that particular
tour has filled out showing, whether it''s booked_datetime_string,
tour_request.daterequested, preferredtime_string or altdaterequested

Would appreciate any help!
