rails image_tag not working

Question

UPDATE: does anyone know why the images show up in Firefox but not in Chrome?

I just tested my app in Firefox and the images show up! But they do not show up in Google Chrome. Does anyone know why this is?

Ok, so I'm having hell with the image_tag in rails. I have the following code in my index.html.erb

code in..

<% @most_recent_tweets.each do |tweet| %>
    <%= image_tag (tweet["user"]["profile_image_url"]) %>
<% end %>

The following is what appears on the actual webpage

code out..

<img alt="Eli_face_1_bigger_normal" src="http://a2.twimg.com/profile_images/498988018/eli_face_1_bigger_normal.jpg">

The html for the image shows up in the code but no image displays in the browser. Why is this? Any ideas?

Answer 1

Try adding .html_safe

image_tag (tweet["user"]["profile_image_url"]).html_safe
