prazim Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I have a small piece of javascript code I'd like to include in the header of each section of my gift shop. Simply pasting the code in doesn't work. How do I do this? Thanks, Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply pasting the code in doesn't work. How do I do this?Thanks, Sue javascript is normally placed within the <head> </head> tags in an page. If the javascripts placement within the page isn't critical it could be added to header.php ... If it is critical you'd need to add it to the relevant php files within the Catalog directory (just the ones in the root, not the sub-folders) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prazim Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 Well, I would like the javascript to be at the top of the page, for every page a customer visits which is why I was going to place it in header.php. Do I place the javascript with <head> codes before any php code? thanks, Sue javascript is normally placed within the <head> </head> tags in an page.If the javascripts placement within the page isn't critical it could be added to header.php ...

sLaV- Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Some Javascript code wont work unless its within the <head></head> tag - others will the problem with placing the javascript in /catalog/includes/header.php is that the header file is included in every page AFTER the closing <head> tag and in the <body> tag - so by placing it in the header.php file your placing your javascript code in the body tag on every page the header.php file is included and if placing the Javascript code in header.php , do NOT enclose it within <head></head> tags or your pages are going to have 2 <head> tags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
