My helper methods in controller

Question

My app should render html, to answer when a user clicks ajax-link.

My controller:

def create_user
  @user = User.new(params)
  if @user.save
    stat

helpers are just ruby modules which you can include in any controller just like any module.

module UserHelper
    def link_to_profile(user)
        link = link_to(user.login, {:controller => "users", :action => "profile", :id => user.login}, :class => "profile-link")
        return(image_tag("/images/users/profile.png") + " " + link)
    end
end

And, in your controller :

class UserController < ApplicationController
    include UserHelper

    def create
        redirect_to link_to_profile(User.first)
    end
end
