Rails - Mar 2009 - link_to to open a website

Hello there,

     I am using the link_to tag to open a website. I am getting error.

I used the following code.

<%= link_to "click here",:action
=>"http://www.rubyxml.com" %>

I am getting the following error

No route matches "/users/http:%2F%2Fwww.rubyxml.com" with
{:method=>:get}

Can anybody tell me what i have to do to overcome this problem.


Thanks in advance.
