def javascript_cdata_section(content) # :nodoc:
  "\n//#{cdata_section("\n#{content}\n//")}\n".html_safe
end


  








  

    #javascript_tag(content_or_options_with_block = nil, html_options = {}, &block)  
  



  

    

Returns a JavaScript tag with the content inside. Example:



javascript_tag "alert('All is good')"



Returns:



<script>
//<![CDATA[
alert('All is good')
//]]>
</script>




html_options may be a hash of attributes for the <script> tag.



javascript_tag "alert('All is good')", type: 'application/javascript'



Returns:



<script type="application/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
alert('All is good')
//]]>
</script>




Instead of passing the content as an argument, you can also use a block in which case, you pass your html_options as the first parameter.



<%= javascript_tag type: 'application/javascript' do -%>
  alert('All is good')
<% end -%>




If you have a content security policy enabled then you can add an automatic nonce value by passing nonce: true as part of html_options. Example:



<%= javascript_tag nonce: true do -%>
  alert('All is good')
<% end -%>
