javascript and template division

About the division: whatever works for you is right! I don't think there is any one "true solution".

About the scripts: I would put the functions in separate .js files. Then I would tell the 'meta' view (which probably means the 'head' part of your html document) which .js files to load. For instance by passing an array of js filenames.
