This may come acrossed as a really dumb question. I am wanting to  
setup redbox on a website. I can get lightbox to work on a non-ruby  
website.  
Anyhow, here is one line they say to do.  
\<%= stylesheet\_link\_tag ‘redbox’ %\> \<%= javascript\_include\_tag  
:defaults %\> \<%= javascript\_include\_tag ‘redbox’ %\>

My question is this. javascript\_include\_tag is this exactly what  
should be in the line, or is it a means of saying, you need to put the  
include statement for your JS here.  
I have not started working on it yet. I am a novice, and have seen  
things in Ruby that tell me that this line, as pasted, should be in  
the code.

javascript\_include\_tag is the name of a method… so what you have above  
is what you want in your view.
