A1. If you have a mockup already you replicate most of the look and feel by 
pasting that in your erb file and replacing forms etc with their form 
helper counterparts.  The only issue to keep in mind, most of those produce 
less than optimal code, which means you may want to clean that up a bit.  

A2. Rails comes with jQuery included by default (in later versions 
anyways). You can simply bind events to the DOM with jQuery.  Something 
along the lines of:
$('#someId).on('click',function(){
     yourfunction();
});
It's really quite easy once you learn how.
