Source a javascript and stylesheet into rhtml file

[Tim Trampedach]

Hi all,

I'm trying to do a quick dump of a javascript and style sheet located in
their respective /public directories into an rhtml file. I want to
include the entire text of the file in my rhtml file. How do I do this
quickly and efficiently? In PHP there's readfile, but I can't figure out
an equivalent call in ruby.

Thanks so much in advance!

Tim

<%=h File.read(RAILS_ROOT + '/public/javascript/my_source.js') %>

This is half introductory Ruby and half introductory Rails, so one might
consider reading a little of the excellent books on these subjects, offline,
for a while!

While Philip may have assumed that Tim was using Rails, there was nothing
in the original post to indicate that Rails is involved. It's just ERB to
produce HTML (in this case with embedded JS and CSS), which comes up in
other contexts.

Amazingly true.

My reply was to suggest a better place for Rails help if this was in
fact part of a Rails matter.
