The web page and any javascript in it run in the browser. Which computer do you want the ruby script to run on? The server running your rails app or the client PC running in the browser? If you answer is the PC running the browser then, for a start, how would you even know that ruby is installed on that PC? It is for exactly that sort of task that javascript was invented.
