Passing blocks to view helpers

Greg DeVore <greg.dev...@gmail.com>

Just getting started with staticmatic and I am having a little trouble
passing blocks to view helpers.  I have this helper:

  def quote_block(&block)
    output = "<blockquote><div>"
    output << yield
    output << "</div></blockquote>"
    output
  end

In my view I have:

= quote_block { "<p>ScreenSteps has been a huge factor in my success
in my position.</p>"}

That works.

What I would like to do is something like this:

= quote_block do
  %p "ScreenSteps has been a huge factor in my success in my
position."

But I can't get that to work. Staticmatic doesn't seem to recognize
that I am passing a block unless I use the {}.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Greg DeVore
