You can use #{} interpolation in the text under the :javascript
filter. So, for your example, you can do:
:javascript
if (document.cookie.indexOf('signed_in') == -1) {
document.write('<li class="first">#{link_to("Sign in", :controller
=> "user", :action => "sign_in")}</li>');
}
I would also suggest using a helper for the contents of your
document.write so that you could do something like this:
document.write('#{sign_in_link}');
Hope this helps.
