Set string of html as Html just like innerHTML without JavaScript directly from .html file

Question

In embedded ruby(html.erb) file,

I have a string of html like variable_string = "<p>Some <strong>Content</strong></p>".

Using Javascript we can just update DOM like Element.innerHTML = variable_string and the string will be rendered as html.

But I can't use JavaScript and want to do something like

<div innerHTML="<%= variable_string %>">

directly sort of inline way. Is it possible?

Use `html_safe` on the `variable_string`. Refer this for more - https://stackoverflow.com/a/39706146/4758119 — Deepak Mahakale, Jun 08 '21 at 14:38
