ruby-on-rails - What's the best to include HTML tags before text produced by link_to?

Question

basically I want the following output with link_to:

<a href="#"><i class="some-class"></i>Some text</a>

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

<%= link_to "#" do %>
  <i class="some-class"></i>Some text
<% end %>

Block form of link_to for the win!

What about content_tag ?

link_to "#{content_tag(:i, "", :class => 'some-class')}Some text".html_safe, root_url
