Custom captures (See related posts)

I made a layout with some slightly ugly code for making rounded boxes with CSS and HTML, and wanted a way to automate the boxes. I had thought of having two functions to print starting and ending code, but this seems nicer.

This goes with the other application helpers:

  def rounded_box(&block)
    concat '<div class="rounded"><div class="top"></div><div class="body">' + capture(&block) + '</div><div class="bottom"></div></div>', block.binding
  end


This goes in a view:

<% rounded_box do %>

... stuff to put in the rounded box ...

<% end %>
