Re: Using Javascript->link Inside An Element
I know, it sucks. I think I did manage to achieve a similar result in a very roundabout way in one of my older applications, but it's not really worth the hassle; Cake just isn't set up for it.

My original implementation did exactly what you describe but I was hoping that it could be done otherwise. Guess not.

Re: Using Javascript->link Inside An Element
You only use echo when you're linking them inline. So you would never have something like: echo $javascript->link($scriptname, false); It would either be: echo $javascript->link($scriptname); or: $javascript->link($scriptname, false); Unfortunately, you can't use the $scripts_for_layout variable in the layout or elements included from the layout because usually by that point the variable has already been printed out. Your best bet would be to just place inline link calls in the header section of the layout. On Jun 7, 2:51 pm, Dima wrote: > vekija, thanks a ton for your help!!

Re: Using Javascript->link Inside An Element
vekija, thanks a ton for your help!! I added echo in front of all 4 of the lines in nav_menu.cpt. I was immediately able to see the style sheets kick in; however, when I look at page source, it still doesn't show those files in the page header and is not displaying correctly. Am I using the correctly? Does it have to go before/after a certain point in the header?

Re: Using Javascript->link Inside An Element
you have to "echo" those :) echo $javascript->link('mootools-for-dropdown', false); On Jun 7, 8:43 pm, Dima wrote: > I'm pretty new to CakePHP so it is likely that my issue is rather > simple to fix.

Using Javascript->link Inside An Element
I'm pretty new to CakePHP so it is likely that my issue is rather simple to fix. I have a custom element which I created called nav_menu.cpt. I call this element from default.cpt using: element('nav_menu'); ?> For my element to work properly, I need to import 3x .js files and 1x .css file; I have placed these files in /webroot/js/ and /webroot/ css/ respectively and am attempting to call them inside the element like so: link('mootools-for-dropdown', false); $javascript->link('UvumiDropdown-compressed', false); $javascript->link('nav_menu', false); $html->css('uvumi-dropdown'); ?> However, when the page loads and I check page source, it doesn't include these files in the header. I've also tried calling this following line in default.cpt with no success: What am I doing wrong??
