event handlers
Should there be a recommendation to use YUI event handlers instead of JavaScript's inline event handlers? This might be better for cross-browser compatibility. --Frank Ralf 09:24, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
- Good idea--Tim Hunt 03:16, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
Getting Moodle to load your JavaScript files
are in_head and asap now obsolete? It seems in_head is replaced by the second parameter to the js class constructor, is there an alternative for asap? --Alastair Hole 17:46, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- Yes. They are obsolete. If you want to output JS in the middle of the page, you should not just do that using the js_writer class. However, the only javascript like that should be simple function calls to initialise things. It is much better to have your javascript in the footer, and if you plan for that in advance, it is normally easy to do. (I will now update this page, to remove mention of obsolete stuff.)--Tim Hunt 19:27, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
