Hi Guys,
I got a helper method that I want to use more than once. The only thing
that will change will be the variable that is used to collect the data.
For example;
def render_blocks
position = 0
@variable.collect { |question, answer|
position += 1
"<h3>#{position}. <a
name=\"#{block_to_anchor(question)}\"></a>#{question}</h3>"
+
content_tag(''div'', simple_format(answer))
}
end
I need to call this helper method from different pages. Can I pass
something through to the helper method that changes the variable name to
the one I want..
For example
<%= render_blocks :page => ''free'' %> on one page that
changed @variable
to @free and
<%= render_blocks :page => ''faq'' %> that changes
@variable to @faq.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
