Question

I’m looping through errors in a user#update using the following HAML:

- if @user.errors.any?
  .alert.alert-error
    %ul
      = @user.errors.full_messages.each do |msg|
        %li= msg

However, instead of just displaying the message, I also get square brackets:

First name can't be blank ["First name can't be blank"]

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT:

If I do p msg then the console tail shows only the message, but within the <li> the brackets still render.

I figured it out.

The line:

= @user.errors.full_messages.each do |msg|

should have read:

- @user.errors.full_messages.each do |msg|

Haml was printing out the array on top of doing the loop.
