Question

Is it possible to truncate a link_to within rails using the truncate helper of course, I have this link_to in my app

<%= link_to b.bookname, b %>

This is within a .each do so i am passing through b for example

messed around with a few variations but unable to get to work at present,

Anyone done this before?

Thanks

Using truncate helper

<%= link_to truncate(b.bookname, :length => 5), b %>
