Best practice? templates vs CSS and Javascript - El Forum - 05-08-2013
[eluser]bartgrrr[/eluser]
Hi,
Depending on the 'type of page' (form-, overview-, search-, chart page, ...) I need/shouldn't need to use certain css and or javascript files.
For instance, a form page doesn't benefit on including css and javascript files for displaying charts.
I see 2 solutions for this type of problem.
1. Create a template page for each page type. Each template page has it's own link and script tags.
2. Create 1 template page with specific placeholders, filled in by the controller methods ($this->template->write_view).
What is the best solution? ... Or is there even a better way?
I need to use templates (footer, topmenu, ... are injected by controllers)
