using Coderay with a html.erb file

Question

Has anyone got any experience with using Coderay with html.erb files. I'm unsure how to use coderay with these files.

I have a helper method

def coderay(text)
  text.gsub(/\<code( lang="(.+?)")?\>(.+?)\<\/code\>/m) do
    CodeRay.scan($3, $2).div(:css => :class)
  end
end

I save all my text into my model and encapsulate anything i want formatted using coderay like so

<code lang="ruby">
  <div class="sidebarbox-title">
    <h3>Posts</h3>
  </div>
  <% @posts.each do |p| %>
    <h3 class="post-header">
      <%= p.name %>
    </h3>
   <% end %>
</code>

when i want to use coderay formatted text in my view i then do

<%= coderay(@post.comments).html_safe %>

How do i specify what the language is though if using .html.erb, so to clarify

<code lang="**What goes here**">
  <div class="sidebarbox-title">
    <h3>Posts</h3>
  </div>
  <% @posts.each do |p| %>
    <h3 class="post-header">
      <%= p.name %>
    </h3>
   <% end %>
</code>

The docs Here seem to state that it can be done, but cant see how

Thanks

Answer 1

And the answer was stupidly obvious

 <code lang="erb">
  <div class="sidebarbox-title">
    <h3>Posts</h3>
  </div>
    <% @posts.each do |p| %>
      <h3 class="post-header">
        <%= p.name %>
      </h3>
   <% end %>
 </code>
