Ruby - rails - read only text value form input

How do I print simple text to be a form value and make it non editable? I am not looking for 

<%= text_field_tag :something, nil, :readonly => true %>

I want it without a read only input box. Like html and still get posted via the form. 

<a id="something"></a>

render_field(field, prefix, options.merge(:hide_description => true, :readonly => true))

Where render_field is the following:

# Returns html def render_field(field, prefix = "", options = {}) hidden = field.fetch("HIDDEN", false) return if hidden field_type = field["TYPE_KIND"].upcase return "Unkown field type #{field_type}" unless %w(C N D G P).include?(field_type)

send("render_#{field_type.downcase}_type", *[field, prefix, options])

end
