Rather than setting the <meta name="description" contents="xyzzy"> tag in every webpage of my site, I decided to be clever and set a variable in each controller with the text and
-- do:
<meta name="description" contents=<%= @desc %> />
on the layout instead. The problem is that the generated text has a no quotes:
<meta name="description" contents=FOO BAR/>
is what I end up with.
I've tried every variant of surrounding the text with quotes or using variable interpolation in strings to try to make this work.
Either I end up with no text passed into the layout, or I get
<meta name="description" contents="FOO BAR"/>
Which may actually be correct, but just looks odd.
I've actually decided to add the meta tag the old fashioned way, but now I'm curious as to why I can't make this work.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Joe
