about something. The *_path and *_url methods return plain String objects,
not an ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer. If something is passed into (say) link_to
that contains an escapable character, such as & in a query string, link_to
will escape it.
I haven't encountered people putting .html_safe on *_path methods before,
so I didn't know about this. Is this something well-known? Is it expected?
My assumption was that it would have been html_safe.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Example:
app.glucose_readings_path(:hello => true, :goodbye=> false)
app.glucose_readings_path(:hello => true, :goodbye=> false).class
foo.link_to "hi", app.glucose_readings_path(:hello => true, :goodbye=>
=> "<a href=\"/glucose_readings?goodbye=false&hello=true\">hi</a>"
foo.link_to "hi", app.glucose_readings_path(:hello => true, :goodbye=>
=> "<a href=\"/glucose_readings?goodbye=false&hello=true\">hi</a>"
