link_to
takes a block of code ( >= Rails 2.2) which it will use as the body of the tag.
So, you do
<%= link_to(@album) do %>
html-code-here
<% end %>
But I'm quite sure that to nest a div
inside a a
tag is not valid HTML.
EDIT: Added =
character per Amin Ariana's comment below.
Also, this may be an issue for some:
Make sure to write <%=
if you are doing a simple link with code in it instead of <%
.
e.g.
<%= link_to 'some_controller_name/some_get_request' do %>
Hello World
<% end %>
For older Rails versions, you can use
<% content_tag(:a, :href => foo_path) do %>
<span>Foo</span>
<% end %>
You can use link_to
with a block:
<% link_to(@album) do %>
<!-- insert html etc here -->
<% end %>
