HAML IF Indentation Problem

Question

This is my code:

[e-mail] do |a|
  -if @i%3 == 0
    %ul
  %li=link_to a.name, a
  -@i += 1

I need li to be inside ul, which is inside the if statement. I cannot do this due to indentation. Can't I just point li to indent automatically?

thank

I think you want to output a new% ul every time @i%3 == 0, and then put the tags %li. You can do the following:

[e-mail]_groups_of(3, false) do |activity_group|
  %ul
    -activity_group.each do |activity|
     %li=link_to activity.name, activity
