I recall that I once found that rails wasn't displaying HTML and it was a security feature.

For some reason though I find that now I can't get that situation where HTML doesn't display

So

This is my controller

> class AbcController < ApplicationController
>   def def
>      @faf="<a href=\"a/b/c.html\">aaa</a>"
>   end
> end

This is my view

> <h1>Abc#def</h1>
> <% a="<>" %>
> <%= a %><br>
> <% puts a %>
> <% a="<a href=\"asdf/wer\">rrrrr</a>" %>
> <%= a %><br>
> <% @b="<a href=\"asdf/wer\">rrrrr</a>" %>
> <%= @b %><br>
> zzzzz<br>
> <%= @faf %>

And the output is

> Abc#def
> <>
> <a href="asdf/wer">rrrrr</a>
> <a href="asdf/wer">rrrrr</a>
> zzzzz
> <a href="a/b/c.html">aaa</a>

Every single hyperlink is displayed!

Why is that?
