Hi Colin, I do want to do what you request, but as I explain that I can't edit the server, view controller etc the original code on the themes is: <%= land_area -%><%= land_area_unit -%> it show on website is 1234 M2 what I want to do is change the M2 to m² m² is html to display m² , then I change it to: <%= land_area -%><%= if land_area_unit == M2 %> m² <% else %>Ha Ha is Hectares but its not work, sorry that I can't do too much following what you request because I don't know how. and thanks in advance! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
