Does anyone know how to add stylesheets in a template with Symfony 1.4 ?

I have tried everything I can think of, from modifying frontend/config/view.yml to modifying the template itself – bothing works.

I have seen from my searches, that other people have had the same problem. There seems to be a clash of sorts between using include_stylesheets and use_stylesheets – however this is not documented anywhere AFAIK.

    Edit:

    Ok I think I got it now. You should add include_stylesheets() into the head section of your layout file:

    <html>
   <head>
       <title>This is the title</title>
       <?php include_stylesheets() ?>
   </head>
   <body>
   <!-- ... -->

    Then in your template file, you use use_stylesheet() to add a particular stylesheet for this template:

    <?php use_stylesheet('/path/to/stylesheet.css') ?>

    From the API documentation:

    include_stylesheets()
    Prints <link> tags for all stylesheets configured in view.yml or added to the response object.

    use_stylesheet()
    Adds a stylesheet to the response object.

    Same for Javascript.

    According to the API documentation it should still work in 1.4, sfWebResponse still has this method:

    addStylesheet ($file, $position, $options)   
  $file   The stylesheet file  
  $position   Position   
  $options    Stylesheet options  
Adds a stylesheet to the current web response.

    At least the method exists.
    What exactly is the problem? Do you get an error if you want to call that method or is the stylesheet just not added?
