[webgen-users] How to use js_file

[Martin Denham]

Hi,

I see there is a method of specifying an extra js file for inclusion in the head section of a certain .page file but I can't seem to make it work.  Is there an example anywhere?

I tried:

---

title: My Title

in_menu: true

sort_info: 3

js_file: http://static.delicious.com/js/playtagger.js

---

Page content .....

Thanks

Martin

This functionality is currently available only to webgen extension and
cannot be directly used from a page file. However, this will be enabled
in the next release.

Thanks Thomas,

That's great. Meanwhile I got around it using the following:

Template file:
<webgen:block name="header" notfound="ignore"/>
Page file
--- name:header
<!-- allow inline play of mp3 files -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.delicious.com/js/
playtagger.js"> </script>

The only problem with the above is I had to put a space between the
opening and closing script tags to prevent the markdown processor
converting to a single empty script tag which breaks ie.

Also, I don't know why the preceding comment line line gets combined
with the script line - there are 2 spaces on the end which I thought
would cause a carriage return.

Regards
Martin

If you just use HTML, you should turn off at least Markdown processing
in the block or simply don't use any content processor:
