Sorry, I tried to do it from memory and got the format juxtaposed.

Instead of <%h= "something with <xml> %>

should be <%=h "something with <xml> %>

See below

require 'erb'

class Foo
   include ERB::Util

   SCRIPT = <<EOS
<h1><%=h @name %></h1>
<ul>
<% ary.each do |x|%>
<li><%=h x %></li>
<% end %>
</ul>
EOS
   def initialize(name)
     @name = name
     @erb = ERB.new(SCRIPT)
   end

   def foo(ary)
     @erb.result(binding)
   end
end

it = Foo.new('foo')
puts it.foo([1,2,'<dia>'])
