Thread: including scripts

I have the following javascript scripts that I need to include in the head of my page. I have put this in template.master and it works fine until I go to a product that is in /product/1/product.aspx.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/jquery.hoverIntent.minified.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jscripts/menu.js"></script>

I tried doing runat=server in the script tag but that didn't work. Ideas?

I, too, would like to knw more about using scripts. I understand scripts.

Changing your include to contain a leading slash should fix your issue:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/jscripts/jquery.min.js"></script>

Actually putting a leading / in the script SRC is a bad idea. If your site isn't hosted at the root level then it will break every time. Instead you should either load the script in to the ScriptManager or should specify the site-root variable.

To turn on the ScriptManager:

Code:

Public Overrides ReadOnly Property RequireScriptManager() As Boolean
	Get
		Return True
	End Get
End Property

To add to the ScriptManager:

Code:

Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
	DirectCast(Master.FindControl("scrptMgr"), ScriptManager).Scripts.Add(New ScriptReference("/jscripts/SafariChromeAJAXFix.js"))
End Sub

*Note: there is no ~ before the leading / because this is talking about the path the compiler follows.

Or

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="~/jscripts/jquery.min.js"></script>

*Note the ~ before the leading /. That is what tells ASP.Net to start from the site root, not the domain root.
