I work for a university doing web development. They have a pre-made template that requires me to put some script tags in the head along with some other custom content. The only way that I've found to be able to explicitly put stuff in the head is to put it in the Default.aspx page. I really don't want to do that because I want to be able to apply other skins without having these things I put in the head explicitly interfere with other skins. I've looked at adjusting the skin parser, but from what I've read, I should avoid doing that. Is there a way to put custom things in the head? It would be nice to be able to have a module that can expand the skin parser or be able to configure it some how.

In general it is better for the perfomance of your website if you add JS links at the bottom of the page.

But if you want to add stuff to the head of the page you can do this like this:

 

<script runat="server">

    Private Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Init
        'add a script reference for Javascript to the head section
        Dim oLink As New HtmlGenericControl("script")
        oLink.Attributes("language") = "javascript"
        oLink.Attributes("type") = "text/javascript"
        oLink.Attributes("src") = SkinPath & "js/" & "my.js"
        Dim oCSS As Control = Me.Page.FindControl("CSS")
        If Not oCSS Is Nothing Then
            oCSS.Controls.AddAt(0, oLink)
        End If
    End Sub

</script>
