Rails 3 - How to comment in a View?

Question

What is the Rails 3 way to comment out One Line or Multiple lines of code in a View? And so it doesn't show up in the HTML Source

Answer 1

To comment out a single line ob ruby code use

<%# code %>
or for multiple lines
<%
=begin
 your code
=end
%>

EDIT: Here a example to comment out a loop in an view. The =begin and =end must stand directly at the beginning of the line. There couldn't be any spaces or tabs.

<h1>Listing posts</h1>

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Title</th>
    <th>Text</th>
    <th></th>
    <th></th>
    <th></th>
  </tr>

<%
=begin 
%>
<%@posts.each do |post| %>
  <tr>
    <td><%= post.title %></td>
    <td><%= post.text %></td>
    <td><%= link_to 'Show', post %></td>
    <td><%= link_to 'Edit', edit_post_path(post) %></td>
    <td><%= link_to 'Destroy', post, :confirm => 'Are you sure?', :method => :delete %></td>
  </tr>
<% end %>
<%
=end
%>
</table>
