How do I add additional content to a link when using the link_to helper in Rails?
link_to "Stephen Weber", "index.html" creates this:
<a href="index.html">Stephen Weber</a> But what if I want to create this?
<a href="index.html"> <h3>Stephen Weber</h3> <p><strong>You've been invited to a meeting at Filament Group in Boston, MA</strong></p> <p>Hey Stephen, if you're available at 10am tomorrow, we've got a meeting with the jQuery team.</p> <p class="ui-li-aside"><strong>6:24</strong>PM</p> </a> I'm playing around with jQuery Mobile and this is what is required for formatting content in lists.

Links and anchors defined by the A element must not be nested; an A element must not contain any other A elements. Since the DTD defines the LINK element to be empty, LINK elements may not be nested either.
The <a> element, or anchor element, it used to create a hyperlink to another webpage or another location within the same webpage. The hyperlink created by an anchor element is applied to the text, image, or other HTML content nested between the opening and closing <a> tags.
Rails is able to map any object that you pass into link_to by its model. It actually has nothing to do with the view that you use it in. It knows that an instance of the Profile class should map to the /profiles/:id path when generating a URL.
You Could do:
<%= link_to 'index.html', :title => "Some link" do %> <h3> Stephen Weber </h3> ... <% end %> If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
