Hi there,
I am trying to add scripts onto the head and I came across this solution
$PAGE->requires->js( new moodle_url($CFG->wwwroot . 'http://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.min.js'));
However, this only loads into the body and not the head. Is there anyway around this? (The url cannot change)
Thank you!
I'm struggling to see how either option would work - but happy to learn please...
Surely $CFG->wwwroot . 'http://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.min.js' just concatenates the moodle site wwwroot and the external url and gives a link that doesn't have any chance of working at all...
This is what I get on my local host if I add that line:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost/moodledevhttp://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script>So, there is no way it will work, whether in body or head.
Try taking out the $CFG->wwwroot . and see of it works then.
Thanks for the replies. I have tried both ways and the script tag don't show up anymore for either. I think it's the ,true parameter that is making it happen. If I get rid of that, the script tag at least get appended to the end of my body.
What's weird is that even after the page loads and I see the script tag being appended to the end of the body, I cannot use jQuery in the console. It just says $ is undefined......
Instead of using something like
$(function() { // Document is ready});try to use this
jQuery(function( $ ) { // Your code using failsafe $ alias here...})Thank you!
This worked for jQuery. However, I want to use not just jQuery, but some custom scripts as well..And setting js(moodle_url, true) to true doesn't seem to work for me.
