javaScriptIncludeTag()

Returns a script tag for a JavaScript file (or several) based on the supplied arguments.

Name	Type	Required	Default	Description
sources	string	No		The name of one or many JavaScript files in the `javascripts` folder, minus the `.js` extension. Pass a full URL to access an external JavaScript file. Can also be called with the `source` argument.
type	string	No	text/javascript	The `type` attribute for the `script` tag.
head	boolean	No	false	Set to `true` to place the output in the `head` area of the HTML page instead of the default behavior (which is to place the output where the function is called from).
delim	string	No	,	The delimiter to use for the list of JavaScript files.
encode	boolean	No	true	When set to `true`, encodes tag content, attribute values, and URLs so that Cross Site Scripting (XSS) attacks can be prevented. Set to `attributes` to only encode attribute values and not tag content.
