+module ActionView
+  module Helpers #:nodoc:
+    # This module provides methods for generating HTML that links views to assets such
+    # as images, javascripts, stylesheets, and feeds. These methods do not verify
+    # the assets exist before linking to them:
+    #
+    #   image_tag("rails.png")
+    #   # => <img alt="Rails src="/images/rails.png?1230601161" />
+    #   stylesheet_link_tag("application")
+    #   # => <link href="/stylesheets/application.css?1232285206" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
+    #
+    # === Using asset hosts
+    #
+    # By default, Rails links to these assets on the current host in the public
+    # folder, but you can direct Rails to link to assets from a dedicated asset
+    # server by setting ActionController::Base.asset_host in the application
+    # configuration, typically in <tt>config/environments/production.rb</tt>.
+    # For example, you'd define <tt>assets.example.com</tt> to be your asset
+    # host this way:
+    #
+    #   ActionController::Base.asset_host = "assets.example.com"
+    #
+    # Helpers take that into account:
+    #
+    #   image_tag("rails.png")
+    #   # => <img alt="Rails" src="http://assets.example.com/images/rails.png?1230601161" />
+    #   stylesheet_link_tag("application")
+    #   # => <link href="http://assets.example.com/stylesheets/application.css?1232285206" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
+    #
+    # Browsers typically open at most two simultaneous connections to a single
+    # host, which means your assets often have to wait for other assets to finish
+    # downloading. You can alleviate this by using a <tt>%d</tt> wildcard in the
+    # +asset_host+. For example, "assets%d.example.com". If that wildcard is
+    # present Rails distributes asset requests among the corresponding four hosts
+    # "assets0.example.com", ..., "assets3.example.com". With this trick browsers
+    # will open eight simultaneous connections rather than two.
+    #
+    #   image_tag("rails.png")
+    #   # => <img alt="Rails" src="http://assets0.example.com/images/rails.png?1230601161" />
+    #   stylesheet_link_tag("application")
+    #   # => <link href="http://assets2.example.com/stylesheets/application.css?1232285206" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
+    #
+    # To do this, you can either setup four actual hosts, or you can use wildcard
+    # DNS to CNAME the wildcard to a single asset host. You can read more about
+    # setting up your DNS CNAME records from your ISP.
+    #
+    # Note: This is purely a browser performance optimization and is not meant
+    # for server load balancing. See http://www.die.net/musings/page_load_time/
+    # for background.
+    #
+    # Alternatively, you can exert more control over the asset host by setting
+    # +asset_host+ to a proc like this:
+    #
+    #   ActionController::Base.asset_host = Proc.new { |source|
+    #     "http://assets#{rand(2) + 1}.example.com"
+    #   }
+    #   image_tag("rails.png")
+    #   # => <img alt="Rails" src="http://assets0.example.com/images/rails.png?1230601161" />
+    #   stylesheet_link_tag("application")
+    #   # => <link href="http://assets1.example.com/stylesheets/application.css?1232285206" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
+    #
+    # The example above generates "http://assets1.example.com" and
+    # "http://assets2.example.com" randomly. This option is useful for example if
+    # you need fewer/more than four hosts, custom host names, etc.
+    #
+    # As you see the proc takes a +source+ parameter. That's a string with the
+    # absolute path of the asset with any extensions and timestamps in place,
+    # for example "/images/rails.png?1230601161".
+    #
+    #    ActionController::Base.asset_host = Proc.new { |source|
+    #      if source.starts_with?('/images')
+    #        "http://images.example.com"
+    #      else
+    #        "http://assets.example.com"
+    #      end
+    #    }
+    #   image_tag("rails.png")
+    #   # => <img alt="Rails" src="http://images.example.com/images/rails.png?1230601161" />
+    #   stylesheet_link_tag("application")
+    #   # => <link href="http://assets.example.com/stylesheets/application.css?1232285206" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
+    #
+    # Alternatively you may ask for a second parameter +request+. That one is
+    # particularly useful for serving assets from an SSL-protected page. The
+    # example proc below disables asset hosting for HTTPS connections, while
+    # still sending assets for plain HTTP requests from asset hosts. If you don't
+    # have SSL certificates for each of the asset hosts this technique allows you
+    # to avoid warnings in the client about mixed media.
+    #
+    #   ActionController::Base.asset_host = Proc.new { |source, request|
+    #     if request.ssl?
+    #       "#{request.protocol}#{request.host_with_port}"
+    #     else
+    #       "#{request.protocol}assets.example.com"
+    #     end
+    #   }
+    #
+    # You can also implement a custom asset host object that responds to +call+
+    # and takes either one or two parameters just like the proc.
+    #
+    #   config.action_controller.asset_host = AssetHostingWithMinimumSsl.new(
+    #     "http://asset%d.example.com", "https://asset1.example.com"
+    #   )
+    #
+    # === Using asset timestamps
+    #
+    # By default, Rails appends asset's timestamps to all asset paths. This allows
+    # you to set a cache-expiration date for the asset far into the future, but
+    # still be able to instantly invalidate it by simply updating the file (and
+    # hence updating the timestamp, which then updates the URL as the timestamp
+    # is part of that, which in turn busts the cache).
+    #
+    # It's the responsibility of the web server you use to set the far-future
+    # expiration date on cache assets that you need to take advantage of this
+    # feature. Here's an example for Apache:
+    #
+    #   # Asset Expiration
+    #   ExpiresActive On
+    #   <FilesMatch "\.(ico|gif|jpe?g|png|js|css)$">
+    #     ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year"
+    #   </FilesMatch>
+    #
+    # Also note that in order for this to work, all your application servers must
+    # return the same timestamps. This means that they must have their clocks
+    # synchronized. If one of them drifts out of sync, you'll see different
+    # timestamps at random and the cache won't work. In that case the browser
+    # will request the same assets over and over again even thought they didn't
+    # change. You can use something like Live HTTP Headers for Firefox to verify
+    # that the cache is indeed working.

+      #
+      # You can also include all javascripts in the javascripts directory using <tt>:all</tt> as the source:

+      #     <script type="text/javascript" src="/javascripts/checkout.js"></script>
+      #
+      # Note that the default javascript files will be included first. So Prototype and Scriptaculous are available to
+      # all subsequently included files.
+      #
+      # If you want Rails to search in all the subdirectories under javascripts, you should explicitly set <tt>:recursive</tt>:
+      #

+      #
+      # == Caching multiple javascripts into one
+      #
+      # You can also cache multiple javascripts into one file, which requires less HTTP connections to download and can better be
+      # compressed by gzip (leading to faster transfers). Caching will only happen if ActionController::Base.perform_caching
+      # is set to <tt>true</tt> (which is the case by default for the Rails production environment, but not for the development
+      # environment).

+      #
+      # You can also include all styles in the stylesheets directory using <tt>:all</tt> as the source:

+      # == Caching multiple stylesheets into one
+      #
+      # You can also cache multiple stylesheets into one file, which requires less HTTP connections and can better be
+      # compressed by gzip (leading to faster transfers). Caching will only happen if ActionController::Base.perform_caching
+      # is set to true (which is the case by default for the Rails production environment, but not for the development
+      # environment). Examples:
+      #

+      # * <tt>:alt</tt>  - If no alt text is given, the file name part of the
+      #   +source+ is used (capitalized and without the extension)
+      # * <tt>:size</tt> - Supplied as "{Width}x{Height}", so "30x45" becomes
+      #   width="30" and height="45". <tt>:size</tt> will be ignored if the
+      #   value is not in the correct format.
+      # * <tt>:mouseover</tt> - Set an alternate image to be used when the onmouseover
+      #   event is fired, and sets the original image to be replaced onmouseout.
+      #   This can be used to implement an easy image toggle that fires on onmouseover.
+      #
+      # ==== Examples
