Converting a complex html.erb anchor to haml

I have the following code in a partial that I am trying to convert to HAML. Everything is easy until the anchor.

<% @user ||= current_user %>
<div class="stats">
  <table summary="User stats">
    <tr>
      <td>
        <a href="<%= following_user_path(@user) %>">
          <span id="following" class="stat">
            <%= @user.following.count %> following
          </span>
        </a>

I got it close with:

- @user ||= current_user
.stats
  %table{ :summary => "User stats" }
  开发者_开发百科  %tr
      %td
        %a
          = following_user_path(@user)
          %span.stat#following
            = @user.following.count
            following

but the anchor does not quite come out right. I believe that I should be able to do this with a link_to but I am unclear on how to mix the embedded SPAN tag within the arguments for link_to. How should this be done? Thank you for any help.

You could use the link_to helper:

= link_to following_user_path(@user) do
  %span#following.stat
    == #{@user.following.count} following

I think you can use:

    %a{ :href => following_user_path(@user) }
      %span.stat#following
        = @user.following.count
        following
