I am using h helper method in Rails to encode/escape a string that has an apostrophe (‘) In my view I am using it like this
<%=h "Mike's computer" %>
My understanding is that the html when viewing the source should be Mike%27s computer but the html produced has an apostrophe in it, Mike’s computer
Am I missing something obvious?
How do I get my desired result of Mike%27s computer?
Help is always appreciated.
An apostrophe is a valid character in HTML. It is not encoded because it is not needed to be encoded.
