I am trying to spice up my show_menu2 menu with some jquery I have called jquery.js and my menu.js sctipts in the head section of my template as follows.

Code: [Select]

<head>
<!--Start of Dynamic Head Contnet-->
<title><?php page_title(); ?></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php if(defined(&#39;DEFAULT_CHARSET&#39;)) { echo DEFAULT_CHARSET; } else { echo &#39;utf-8&#39;; }?>" />
<meta name="description" content="<?php page_description(); ?>" />
<meta name="keywords" content="<?php page_keywords(); ?>" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?php echo TEMPLATE_DIR; ?>/screen.css" media="screen" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu.js" />
<?php
// automatically include optional WB module files (frontend.css, frontend.js)
    if (function_exists(&#39;register_frontend_modfiles&#39;)) {
        register_frontend_modfiles(&#39;css&#39;);
        register_frontend_modfiles(&#39;js&#39;);
    }
?>
<!--End of Dynamic Head Content-->
</head>

The problem I am having is that the template is not rendered at all. If i place the call the the js files to be above where I call the register frontend mod files functions the template renders but the module css files aren't included.

Hi,

in your code, jquery.js and menu.js are placed in your root.. are they ? if they are not, you must use <?php echo TEMPLATE_DIR; ?> or <?php echo WB_URL; ?>/ folder / folder / ... / ... / to define the path to these java scripts..

cheers

Hello

Well - the <script>-tag can't be written in the "short" [xhtml-|xml-] form - so the "normal" //close//-tag is needed.*)
e.g.

Code: [Select]

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo TEMPLATE_DIR; ?>/jquery.js" ></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo TEMPLATE_DIR; ?>/menu.js" ></script>

Also, as crnogorac081 described, the (whole?) complete path to the scripts ...

Kind regards
Aldus

It was the closing script tag. I can't believe I would forget something so simple. Thanks
