Where to put Javascript file?

  • In another post I learned that to use javascript on my pages I need to place the script in a separate file and link to it like this: <script src=”/yourfile.js” type=”text/javascript”> </script>

    I’m (obviously) a little green at this. Can someone tell me where to create this file, if I have to name it anything in particular and if there’s any special tags that have to wrap the javascript in this file? Thanks.

  • This might be a good place to start with: Using_Javascript. Does it help?

    Well, you really don’t have to do that. I’ve got perfectly usable inline js in various blogs. For instance, I’ve got adsense inline among other things.

    As far as an external file, just put it somewhere easy, like your blog root. Or if it’s something like minmax.js (that you might want accessible from somewhere else in your site), put the file in your site root. Doesn’t matter as long as you use the absolute address to link to it.
