The Ruby interpreter can only directly run Ruby code.  Javascript is not
Ruby, obviously, so the only possible solution would be to find a way to
load a Javascript interpreter and hook it up such that you can call into
it for the functionality you need.

You can probably do that most easily with JRuby since there are some
Javascript interpreters available that run under Java (where JRuby
itself runs), but I couldn't guess at how hard or easy it would really
be to pull off.
