Ruby on Rails 3 .each do Problem

Question

I\'m sort of new to Ruby on Rails and have been learning just fine, but have seem to run into a problem that I can\'t seem to solve.

Running Rails 3.0.9 & Ruby 1

Answer 1

.each returns the entire array at the end once it is finished the loop. <%= ... %> prints out the value of the statment, which is the value returned by .each <% ... %> does not. So you want:

<% @events.each do |f| %>
    <%= f.name %><%= link_to "View", event_path(f) %><br/><hr/>
<% end %>

Answer 2

You should be using <%, not <%= for your .each line, so

<%= @events.each do |f| %>

should be

<% @events.each do |f| %>
