h / html_escape don’t work within a controller method.

I know, it’s for views. (Or was — haven’t done much Rails since v2.3). But I’m just building an eensy-weensy string and want to use this method in my controller.

So how can I escape HTML from within a controller method?

    ERB::Util.html_escape

    You can include ERB::Util in your controller to use these methods directly.
