  module Helpers #:nodoc:
    # 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.
    module UrlHelper
      include JavaScriptHelper
      
      # Returns the URL for the set of +options+ provided. This takes the 
      # same options as url_for in action controller. For a list, see the 
      # documentation for ActionController::Base#url_for. Note that it'll 
      # set :only_path => true so you'll get the relative /controller/action 
      # instead of the fully qualified http://example.com/controller/action.
      #  
      # When called from a view, url_for returns an HTML escaped url. If you 
      # need an unescaped url, pass :escape => false in the +options+.
      def url_for(options = {}, *parameters_for_method_reference)

      # Creates a link tag of the given +name+ using a 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 uses the value of the string as the 
      # href for the link. If nil is passed as a name, the link itself will become 
      # the name.
      #
      # The +html_options+ will accept a hash of html attributes for the link tag.
      # It also accepts 3 modifiers that specialize the link behavior. 
      #
      # * <tt>:confirm => 'question?'</tt>: This will add a JavaScript confirm 
      #   prompt with the question specified. If the user accepts, the link is 
      #   processed normally, otherwise no action is taken.
      # * <tt>:popup => true || array of window options</tt>: This will force the 
      #   link to open in a popup window. By passing true, a default browser window 
      #   will be opened with the URL. You can also specify an array of options 
      #   that are passed-thru to JavaScripts window.open method.
      # * <tt>:method => symbol of HTTP verb</tt>: This modifier will dynamically
      #   create an HTML form and immediately submit the form for processing using 
      #   the HTTP verb specified. Useful for having links perform a POST operation
      #   in dangerous actions like deleting a record (which search bots can follow
      #   while spidering your site). Supported verbs are :post, :delete and :put.
      #   Note that if the user has JavaScript disabled, the request will fall back 
      #   to using GET. If you are relying on the POST behavior, your should check
      #   for it in your controllers action by using the request objects methods
      #   for post?, delete? or put?.
      #
      # You can mix and match the +html_options+ with the exception of
      # :popup and :method which will raise an ActionView::ActionViewError
      # exception.

      # Generates a form containing a single button that submits to the URL created
      # by the set of +options+. This is the safest method to ensure links that
      # cause changes to your data are not triggered by search bots or accelerators.
      # If the HTML button does not work with your layout, you can also consider
      # using the link_to method with the <tt>:method</tt> modifier as described in
      # the link_to documentation.
      #
      # The generated FORM element has a class name of <tt>button-to</tt>
      # to allow styling of the form itself and its children. You can control
      # the form submission and input element behavior using +html_options+.
      # This method accepts the <tt>:method</tt> and <tt>:confirm</tt> modifiers
      # described in the link_to documentation. If no <tt>:method</tt> modifier
      # is given, it will default to performing a POST operation. You can also 
      # disable the button by passing <tt>:disabled => true</tt> in +html_options+.

      #     <div><input value="New" type="submit" /></div>

      # * <tt>:encode</tt>  - This key will accept the strings "javascript" or "hex".

      #   the page if the user has JavaScript disabled. Passing "hex" will hex
      #   encode the +email_address+ before outputting the mailto: link.
      # * <tt>:replace_at</tt>  - When the link +name+ isn't provided, the
      #   +email_address+ is used for the link label. You can use this option to
      #   obfuscate the +email_address+ by substituting the @ sign with the string
      #   given as the value.
      # * <tt>:replace_dot</tt>  - When the link +name+ isn't provided, the
      #   +email_address+ is used for the link label. You can use this option to
      #   obfuscate the +email_address+ by substituting the . in the email with the
      #   string given as the value.
      # * <tt>:subject</tt>  - Preset the subject line of the email.
      # * <tt>:body</tt> - Preset the body of the email.
      # * <tt>:cc</tt>  - Carbon Copy addition recipients on the email.
      # * <tt>:bcc</tt>  - Blind Carbon Copy additional recipients on the email.
      #
