Question

I want to create several javascript function that will be needed on different pages. Most will be relevant only to one page, but some to several. I know if I add general conversion functions, it would be a good idea to just create a new javascript file and put all these generic functions into that one file. Bringing me to my first question:

• Where would you store the generic javascript file? In “protected”? Which subfolder?

Then, I need to address the placement of other javascript code.

• If I have javascript that will only be used on one page, should I use this technique or should I stick to a similar approach as above?

The emphasis is on doing it correctly. I want to fall exactly in line with the yii framework.

Answer 1

store your generic javascript file in your_app/js folder
i.e js folder is at same level to protected.
if js is only used on one page than it will be better not to use generic file.
