How to write a

Question

I would like to output this jsp in haml:

<select>
  <option ${page.defaultCar=="Volvo" ? "selected" : ""}>Volvo</option>
  <option ${page.defaultCar=="Saab" ? "selected" : ""}>Saab</option>
</select>

The solution how found at the moment is to escape the entire line line so:

\<option ${page.defaultCar=="Volvo" ? "selected" : ""}>Volvo</option>

Just wondering if there is a smarter way to do it.

Thank you ;)

You should use `.equals()` method to compare values.`==` is used when you want to compare references. — Hardik Mishra, May 14 '12 at 14:02

You can use this:

<option '${page.defaultCar=="Volvo" ? "selected" : ""}'>Volvo</option>
