There was a thread recently that brought up the idea of modifying javascript_include_tag to load a controller-specific js file automatically. I took a look at doing that last night, and discovered that it''s actually quite a simple thing to do without extending the Rails source. In a layout, all you have to do is: <%= javascript_include_tag params[:controller] if File.exists?("# {RAILS_ROOT}/public/javascripts/#{params[:controller]}.js") %> Admittedly, this is not DRY because you would need to do this for every application you write. But it is DRY for the current application. Just thought I''d pass that along.
