So, I'm trying to do what I thought was a simple task... But I'm not getting anywhere... All I want to is to get some .js and .css files loaded by my WebPart. I'm using VS2008 + WSPBuilder. I've googled a lot about this but I couldn't find a decent answer. What I would like to know:
Where in the directory structure should I place those files? (eg. 12/TEMPLATE/OTHER? 80/wpresources/assembly_name?)
How can I reach those files? (using a relative path? getting the full path by some method?)
And finally, how can I add those files to the page's
<head>
?
Thanks in advance.. I've lost all my morning in these questions and i'm considering a career change! ;)
Ok, after two cigarettes and more efficient google searches I found the solution.. Hope this helps someone in the same trouble as I was!
The right place to those extra files is in
12/TEMPLATE/LAYOUTS/1033/yourapp/
If they are in this place, the path to those files is
/_layouts/1033/yourapp/yourjs.js
If you want to add a JavaScript file to the head of the page, place this code in the CreateChildControls() method:
If you want to add a CSS file to the head of the page, place this code in the CreateChildControls() method:
