I need a label tag that is like this..
<label class="menulogin" for="user_session[password]">Password</label>
how do i escape it in the label_tag?
<%= label_tag 'user_session\[password\]', 'Password', :class => 'menulogin' %>
I keep getting _ for [ and ]
Internally, label_tag is calling content_tag, but it is sanitizing the name you pass in. Intuitively, your snippet should work. I don't know why the label_tag method is mucking it up.
But, you can bypass label_tag() and go straight to content_tag() and get what you expect with:
<%= content_tag(:label, "Password", {:for => 'user_session[password]', :class => "menulogin"}) %>
