html shows up as text

Question

I'm trying to render html in my Rails application, but the html shows as plain text.

Here is my edit.erb file:

<form action="/posts/update">
  <input type="hidden" name="id" value="<%= post.id %>"/>
  <input type="text" name="post[title]" value="<%= post.title %>"/>
  <textarea rows="10" cols="30" name="post[body]" id=""><%= post.body %></textarea>
  <button type="submit">Update</button>
</form>

I use RubyMine as IDE.

Change the filename to edit.html.erb.

With only erb Rails doesn't know you are tyring to render html and will render it as text.
