Hi,

Outside DNN, what I always do when developing is have a "Scripts" folder in which I nicely organize my javascript (jquery) "Helper" files...normally one per page.

Starting with DNN, I'd like to stay on that route and was wondering what would be the correct way including these files within a module / control.

I've seen some samples including them from the code behind, but IMO that is a bad practice.  (maybe just me, but let's not go into that)

Just stuck with the path actually, and while I'm sure something like "src='~/DesktopModules/MyModule/Scripts/WhateverHelper.js'" will work, I thought I'd just ask.

the normal way would be to include them with your module and use relativepaths (e.g. "/scripts" - though src="~/DesktopModules/MyModule/Scripts/WhateverHelper.js'" is fine also. Another alternative is to add them in your skin and use the <%=SkinPath %> variable to dynamically inject the skin location

hmm...for some reason that just does not work (i know....it should!)

will circle back to it, and just keep my script inside my view for now.
