If you wish to use # these libraries and their helpers (ActionView::Helpers::PrototypeHelper # and ActionView::Helpers::ScriptaculousHelper), you must do one of the # following: # # * Use <%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %> in the HEAD # section of your page (recommended): This function will return # references to the JavaScript files created by the +rails+ command in # your public/javascripts directory. Using it is recommended as # the browser can then cache the libraries instead of fetching all the # functions anew on every request. # * Use <%= javascript_include_tag 'prototype' %>: As above, but # will only include the Prototype core library, which means you are able # to use all basic AJAX functionality. For the Scriptaculous-based # JavaScript helpers, like visual effects, autocompletion, drag and drop # and so on, you should use the method described above. # # For documentation on +javascript_include_tag+ see # ActionView::Helpers::AssetTagHelper. module JavaScriptHelper include PrototypeHelper JS_ESCAPE_MAP = { '\\' => '\\\\', ' '<\/', "\r\n" => '\n', "\n" => '\n', "\r" => '\n', '"' => '\\"', "'" => "\\'" } # Escape carrier returns and single and double quotes for JavaScript segments. def escape_javascript(javascript) if javascript javascript.gsub(/(\\|<\/|\r\n|[\n\r"'])/) { JS_ESCAPE_MAP[$1] } else '' end end # Returns a JavaScript tag with the +content+ inside.
