The Jackal Paranoid (IV) Inmate From: The Dark Side of the Moon Insane since: Jun 2000	posted 05-10-2003 20:58 OK, I am using the template tute at the GN at http://www.gurusnetwork.com/tutorials/php/phptemplate2/phptemplate2.html. My question is this, I want to use a javascript code that requires a part of the code to be in the <head> of the page, how is this done? I noticed that the if you use the <?php $title = "Title Here"; ?> tag it will transfer the title from the .php file to the header.php file in a template. Is there a special tag to do the same for javascript or do I just name the tag myself, like <?php $javascript = "Javascript Here"; ?>

I assume I will need some type of interpreter so that the php scripts are actually read through my browser rather than opened up in a text format.

The Jackal:

Pretty much you can do:

code:

$page_title = 'My page';

$extra_javascript = 'JAVASCRIPT';

then include a header file with something like this in it:

code:

if (!empty ($extra_javascript)) {

echo "<script language=\"JavaScript\"";

echo $extra_javascript;

echo "</script>";

}
