module ApplicationHelper

def xhtml_doctype( doctype=:transitional )
doctype = :transitional unless [:transitional, :strict, :frameset].include? doctype
case doctype
when :transitional

# Displays an html tag, complete with xhtml namespace and language. Accepts language as an option, but defaults to English.
# <tt>html_tag :lang => 'de'</tt>
def html_tag( options={} )
options[:lang] ||= 'en'
lang = options.delete( :lang )
"<html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\" lang=\"#{lang}\" xml:lang=\"#{lang}\" #{options.map { |k,v| "#{k}=\"#{v}\"" }.join( ' ' )}>"
end
# End html tag.
def end_html_tag; "</html>" end
end
I plan to release this and some other small http/html-related gems as a plugin soon, so keep an eye out.
