Question

is there a way to generate following html without href by link_to ?

 <a name="foobar>header</a>

for example:

<%= link_to 'header' , nil, :name =>'foobar' %>

will generate:

<a href='' name='foobar'>header</a>

but I want a no href='' version.

Answer 1

This doesn’t use link_to, but it will accomplish what you’re looking to do:

<%= content_tag :a, "header", :name => "foobar" %>
