title: Rails 3 and jQuery plugin that uses Images
body: <p>With Rails, when i want to use an image in a view, i have to use the tag:</p>
  
  <pre><code>image_tag("myimage.png", ...etc)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>in my html.erb.  That fine.  The result is that a ?1234321323423 is put after the name of the image in the src of the  html tag.</p>
  
  <p>if i try to put a regular <code>&lt;img src="xxx.jpg"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;</code>, the picture is not found!!</p>
  
  <p>My problem is i use a jQuery plugin for a carousel that try to load images from the js source.  Since the ?12334234434 is not put at the end of the src, the images dont load.</p>
  
  <p>How can i bypass this issue?</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to tell Rails to load theses images without the trailing ?12342523343?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for your precious help.</p>
