Helpers

InlineScript

The HTML <script> element is used to either provide inline client-side scripting elements or link to a remote resource containing client-side scripting code. The InlineScript helper allows you to manage both. It is derived from HeadScript, and any method of that helper is available; replace the usage of headScript() in those examples with inlineScript().

Use InlineScript for HTML body scripts

InlineScript should be used when you wish to include scripts inline in the HTML <body>. Placing scripts at the end of your document is a good practice for speeding up delivery of your page, particularly when using 3rd party analytics scripts. Some JS libraries need to be included in the HTML <head>; use HeadScript for those scripts.

Basic Usage

Add to the layout script:

<body>
    <!-- Content -->

    <?php
    echo $this->inlineScript()
        ->prependFile($this->basePath('js/vendor/foundation.min.js'))
        ->prependFile($this->basePath('js/vendor/jquery.js'));
    ?>
</body>

Output:

<body>
    <!-- Content -->

    <script type="text/javascript" src="/js/vendor/jquery.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="/js/vendor/foundation.min.js"></script>
</body>

Capturing Scripts

Add in your view scripts:

$this->inlineScript()->captureStart();
echo <<<JS
    $('select').change(function(){
        location.href = $(this).val();
    });
JS;
$this->inlineScript()->captureEnd();

Output:

<body>
    <!-- Content -->

    <script type="text/javascript" src="/js/vendor/jquery.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="/js/vendor/foundation.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        //<!--
        $('select').change(function(){
            location.href = $(this).val();
        });
        //-->
    </script>
</body>
