Thanks for clarifying this. On a side note, there's something fishy about the fact that the following doesn't yield what I expected: In the head tag section of default.ctp: css(array('general'), null, null, false); ?> The output doesn't contain the Link tag. Could it be becaus

Me again, so I think I figured some of it out. It seems like the call to render the default.ctp doesn't defer the output of the header until the end of all other element rendering. Hence, if echo $scripts_for_layout is processed before in-page element (inside the page's body), which are output u

Hi all, still haven't found a solution for this. Does anyone know whom I might contact to know if this is a bug or expected behavior, ie using $html- >css() within elements doesn't work the same as in views? Should I submit this to the bug tracker? Thanks for helping a new baker. Marc On Oct 7

Hi Michael, thanks for looking at this problem. I know it works when calling $html- >css() from the view (see side notes in original post) but my problem is it doesn't when calling $html->css() or $javascript->link from an element (/views/elements/menu.ctp for instance). Thanks, Marc On Oct 6,

Thanks for your input. I beg to differ though, the manual says: http://manual.cakephp.org/view/96/Layouts When using $html->css() or $javascript->link() in view files, specify 'false' for the 'in-line' argument to place the html source in $scripts_for_layout. (See API for more details on usage).

If you look at the api, you'll see that $html->css creates a link to a pre-existing style sheet in webroot/css. $scripts_for_layout is for javascript using the javascript helper. On Oct 6, 12:02 pm, Marc Campeau <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yeah sorry, I thought I should have put that in the mes
