Embed HAML variable using Ruby interpolation

Question

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here, but here's a small excerpt from my HAML template:

- player = log.player
%tr#player-row-#{player.id}

This is giving me the following error:

Illegal element: classes and ids must have values.

Am I embedding it wrong?

Answer 1

As an alternative, you can use the slightly more succinct () form of attribute specification:

%tr(id="player-row-#{log.player.id}")

Answer 2

You can do it like this:

- player = log.player
%tr{:id => "player-row-#{player.id}"}
