Cascading Javascripts
Cascading Javascripts is a plugin that enhances the behaviour of the built-in javascript_include_tag macro. If :defaults is passed as a parameter, the javascript_include_tag macro will load the following javascript files (if present) in order:
1. application.js; and 2. #{controller_name/action_name}.js (eg. home/index.js, customers/new.js, etc.).
This allows you to define application-wide and page-specific javascript files without needing to manually include each one.
To use, simply call javascript_include_tag from application.rhtml including :defaults as a (or the only) parameter:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">...
<%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>...=== See Also
