I am using zend and not using AJAX in my site. Therefore I have to include all my CSS and JS files in head section of every phtml page.

<html>
<head>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mycssfile.css" />
  <script type="text/javascript" src="myjsfile1.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="myjsfile2.js"></script>
  .........
</head>
<body>
  .........
</body>

</html>

Whenever I add any new CSS/JS file, I have to include it everywhere. Is there a good way that I can include all my CSS and JS file in a file/place and use that reference everywhere. May be there is a good way in zend.

    I usually put my static suff in the bootstrap of the application in the _initViewHelpers method :

    $this->bootstrap(array('frontcontroller', 'view'));
$frontController = $this->getResource('frontcontroller');
$view = $this->getResource('view');

$view->headLink()->appendStylesheet($view->assetUrl('/css/reset.css'))
                 ->appendStylesheet($view->assetUrl('/css/clearfix.css'))
                 ->appendStylesheet($view->assetUrl('/css/screen.css'));

$view->headScript()->appendFile($view->assetUrl('/js/jquery.1.4.3.min.js', 'text/javascript'))
                   ->appendFile($view->assetUrl('/js/jquery.corner.js', 'text/javascript'));

    And then from your layout file you call them through

    echo $this->headLink()->setIndent();
echo $this->headStyle()->setIndent();
