I need to include a javascript file and a css file on my module's page. Putting it there like this:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="/js/TabbedItems/tabs2.js"></script>
<link rel="Stylesheet" href='/js/TabbedItems/tabs.css' />

creates a problem with child portals or development (i.e. http://localhost/Website - the above will resolve to http://localhost/js... which is incorrect).

Now, I've tried all sorts of ways to make sure that this path gets resolved correctly, but... 50/50 didn't work, I am off to audience (and I don't have any friends :( - so you, guys, are my only hope).

Ok, seriously, though, it's a pain and I need your help.

Hi Vitkoz,

     I had the same probelm... My js script worked fine if I plug in my ascx control to a standalone aspx page but didn't work when i deploy the module to dnn framework.

I found a dirty way of fixing it. If you move your js files to root js folder instead of your module level , will fix the issue. This is because after module deployment its the default aspx page which executes the relative path and obviously it can't find your js file on the specified root js folder!

Hope this helps you.

To reference the root you should be able to use /YourPath/here.jx
