Date: 2008-06-11T03:19:50+09:00 Subject: replacing a character in a string So I want to be able to take a string with underscores in it ('_') and replace those with spaces...can somebody please tell me why this isn't working: if cal_name.include? '_' cal_name.sub!('_', ' ') end I can't see why this isn't doing the trick...but maybe I'm doing something wrong. If anyone could give me any idea of what's wrong..or even a different approach, that would be great! Thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
