In the "Head First Rails" book, it mentions that "h" in <%=h...%> is a helper method.
Can someone describe what that means? And, when should I use <%=h...%>? Is it when I want the result to be displayed on my view for example?
Thanks.
Hi,
I know the use of <%=h...%> is to show the html tags:
Consider the following example:
@a= "hi how are <br/>you."
<%= @a %> #=> hi how are you.
<%=h @a %> #=> hi how are <br/>you.
