    # Provides a set of methods for making easy links and getting urls that depend on the controller and action. This means that
    # you can use the same format for links in the views that you do in the controller. The different methods are even named
    # synchronously, so link_to uses that same url as is generated by url_for, which again is the same url used for
    # redirection in redirect_to.
    module UrlHelper
      include JavaScriptHelper
      
      # Returns the URL for the set of +options+ provided. This takes the same options 
      # as url_for. For a list, see the documentation for ActionController::Base#url_for.
      # Note that it'll set :only_path => true so you'll get /controller/action instead of the 
      # http://example.com/controller/action part (makes it harder to parse httpd log files)
      def url_for(options = {}, *parameters_for_method_reference)
        options = { :only_path => true }.update(options.symbolize_keys) if options.kind_of? Hash
        @controller.send(:url_for, options, *parameters_for_method_reference)
      end

      # Creates a link tag of the given +name+ using an URL created by the set of +options+. See the valid options in
      # the documentation for ActionController::Base#url_for. It's also possible to pass a string instead of an options hash to
      # get a link tag that just points without consideration. If nil is passed as a name, the link itself will become the name.
      #
      # The html_options has three special features. One for creating javascript confirm alerts where if you pass :confirm => 'Are you sure?',
      # the link will be guarded with a JS popup asking that question. If the user accepts, the link is processed, otherwise not.
      #
      # Another for creating a popup window, which is done by either passing :popup with true or the options of the window in 
      # Javascript form.
      #
      # And a third for making the link do a POST request (instead of the regular GET) through a dynamically added form element that
      # is instantly submitted. Note that if the user has turned off Javascript, the request will fall back on the GET. So its
      # your responsibility to determine what the action should be once it arrives at the controller. The POST form is turned on by
      # passing :post as true. Note, it's not possible to use POST requests and popup targets at the same time (an exception will be thrown).
      #
      # Examples:
      #   link_to "Delete this page", { :action => "destroy", :id => @page.id }, :confirm => "Are you sure?"
      #   link_to "Help", { :action => "help" }, :popup => true

      # Generates a form containing a sole button that submits to the
      # URL given by _options_.  Use this method instead of +link_to+
      # for actions that do not have the safe HTTP GET semantics
      # implied by using a hypertext link.
      #
      # The parameters are the same as for +link_to+.  Any _html_options_
      # that you pass will be applied to the inner +input+ element.
      # In particular, pass
      # 
      #   :disabled => true/false
      #
      # as part of _html_options_ to control whether the button is
      # disabled.  The generated form element is given the class
      # 'button-to', to which you can attach CSS styles for display
      # purposes.
      #
      # Example 1:
      #
      #   # inside of controller for "feeds"
      #   button_to "Edit", :action => 'edit', :id => 3
      #
      # Generates the following HTML (sans formatting):
      #
      #   <form method="post" action="/feeds/edit/3" class="button-to">
      #     <div><input value="Edit" type="submit" /></div>
      #   </form>
      #
      # Example 2:
      #
      #   button_to "Destroy", { :action => 'destroy', :id => 3 },
      #             :confirm => "Are you sure?"
      #
      # Generates the following HTML (sans formatting):
      #
      #   <form method="post" action="/feeds/destroy/3" class="button-to">
      #     <div><input onclick="return confirm('Are you sure?');"
      #                 value="Destroy" type="submit" />
      #     </div>
      #   </form>
      #
      # *NOTE*: This method generates HTML code that represents a form.
      # Forms are "block" content, which means that you should not try to
      # insert them into your HTML where only inline content is expected.
      # For example, you can legally insert a form inside of a +div+ or
      # +td+ element or in between +p+ elements, but not in the middle of
      # a run of text, nor can you place a form within another form.
      # (Bottom line: Always validate your HTML before going public.)
