what is the equivalent of “data-hover:” in a ruby on rails' link_to block

Question

I have the following html

<a href="#" data-hover="Seraglio"><span>Seraglio</span></a>

How do I convert it to RoR ?

Answer 1

Syntax:

link_to(body, url, html_options = {})

So for your example, in .erb format :

<%= link_to("#", {"data-hover" => "Seraglio"}) do %>
  <span>Seraglio</span>
<% end %>

Answer 2

You may do it this way:-

link_to(body, url, :data =>{:hover => your_data_hover_value})
