Question

The included script references, in particular jQuery, are being rendered after viewstate. Is there a way to get this in the < head>?

Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptInclude('jQuery', '/scripts/jquery.js'); 

I am trying to register jquery.js in a user control’s page load.

Thanks in advance!

P.S. If it can’t be done (with ClientScript), anyone have an idea why they didn’t build it in?

UPDATE

The main feature of the ClientScript manager I need is the ability to only include a script once. The control can appear many times on a page, but i only want one jQuery script include

Answer 1

to directly inlcude it in the HEAD:

HtmlGenericControl Include = new HtmlGenericControl('script');  Include.Attributes.Add('type', 'text/javascript');  Include.Attributes.Add('src', sInclude);  this.Page.Header.Controls.Add(Include);  

you would want to check to make sure its not there already before adding it.
