    Problem: Replacing Prototype with JQuery
    Description: The content_for helper can be used to do such things. Simply insert into application.erb: <%= yield :js_head %> Within the chosen view insert: <% content_for :js_head do %> <%= javascript_include_tag 'javascript-file' %> <% end %> Finally you need to create 'javascript-file', which is placed in the javascripts directory. This is where our custom JavaScript will be stored.
