# Methods added to this helper will be available to all templates in the application. module ApplicationHelper # Displays context help.

It can contain any HTML you # want: bold, italic. It can also contain calls # to any Rails helper, like <%= link_to 'home', :controller => 'home' %>. # <% end %> # # You can also pass an optional argument to force the use of textile in your # help message: # # <% help nil, :textile do %> # You can also use *textile*! # <% end %> # # or, using the return of the method: # # <%= help 'this is your help message' %> # # Formally, the type argument can be :html or # :textile.
