whats eRBs <%= doing in contrast to <%?
My Template
<%
place = "World"
_erbout << "Hello"
%> <%=
place
%>
<%
# Your ruby code here. The 'return value' of
# the last statement does nothing
"NOT IN THE OUTPUT"
%>
When an equals sign is involved, the 'return value'
of the last statement is turned into a string
and inserted into the output.
<%="THIS WILL BE IN THE OUTPUT"%>
