Haml formatting

haml, ruby-on-rails

Solution

%h1 Welcome to Solidarity
Hello, #{@profile.first_name}!
Please #{link_to 'post a comment', new_comment_path}!

becomes

<h1>Welcome to Solidarity</h1>
Hello, John!
Please <a href="/comments/new">post a comment</a>!

Please keep in mind that in Rails 2 and Haml 2, you must properly html-escape anything you send to the browser (ht nex3):

Hello, #{h @profile.first_name}!

In Rails 3 and Haml 3, everything is escaped by default, so you can simply do:

Hello, #{@profile.first_name}!

Problem

I'm new to haml, so I'm still trying to figure out the formatting. I have an index.haml file with the following code. ``` %h1 Welcome to Solidarity Hello, = @profile.first_name ! ``` It renders like this: Welcome to Solidarity Hello, user ! Here's the page source: ``` <h1> Welcome to Solidarity </h1> Hello, frances ! ``` It has a space between @profile.first_name and the exclamation mark. Why is that? And, how do I fix it?
