Question

Should be a relatively simple question — I’m trying to add a css class (“quiz-question”) to this line:

<%= @question.text  %>

If I add it directly after

<%= @question.text :class => "quiz-question" %>

I get an argument error saying wrong number of arguments (1 of 0), and I’ve tried separating with a comma or putting the class inside curly brackets. What’s the correct way to include here?

It doesn’t work because you’re trying to pass an argument to a displayed item.
@question.text isn’t a tag, a block, a helper, etc. It’s only text. And thus, you can’t give it a class.

Why don’t you do <span class="quizz-question"><%= @question.text %></span>?
