auto_link does not add attributes to hrefs like the docs describe
Reported by javan (at javan) | September 21st, 2009 @ 09:21 PM
This is only a problem with the "new" API for auto_link, the old API works fine. An example from the console:
$ script/console
Loading development environment (Rails 2.3.4)
>> include ActionView::Helpers::TextHelper
=> Object
>> include ActionView::Helpers::TagHelper
=> Object
# The docs say this should work:
>> auto_link("http://google.com", :href_options => { :target => "_blank" })
=> "<a href=\"http://google.com\">http://google.com</a>"
# This works:
>> auto_link("http://google.com", :urls, :target => "_blank")
=> "<a href=\"http://google.com\" target=\"_blank\">http://google.com</a>"

This is actually an error in the documentation, it can be fixed with patch in ticket #2261. That patch has been applied to docrails, but not to the actual rails code.

Thanks for the sleuthing, Lena. The docrails patch will make its way back to the main tree eventually, so we can close this one out.
