""" Scriptaculous Helpers Provides a set of helpers for calling Scriptaculous JavaScript functions, including those which create Ajax controls and visual effects. To be able to use these helpers, you must include the Prototype JavaScript framework and the Scriptaculous JavaScript library in your pages. The Scriptaculous helpers' behavior can be tweaked with various options. See the documentation at http://script.aculo.us for more information on using these helpers in your application.
