Magento skin_js path in page.xml

javascript, magento, path, xml

Solution

Try changing (assuming that myjs.js is in skin/frontend/default/blank2/js/myjs.js)

<action method="addItem"><type>skin_js</type><name>myjs.js#notify</name></action>

to

<action method="addItem"><type>skin_js</type><name>js/myjs.js#notify</name></action>

Because myjs.js is not found in your theme then it will try to look for it in the base theme folder

Problem

I tried to add a javascript with a custom template through its page.xml like this: ``` <action method="addItem"><type>skin_js</type><name>myjs.js#notify</name></action> ``` Notify will throw an alert windows so I can check if it's correct after reload. In addition I check the source code to see where it tries to go. Template is correctly setup and cache is flushed. With the above script it goes to: ``` <script type="text/javascript" src="http://127.0.0.1/magento/skin/frontend/base/default/myjs.js#notify"></script> ``` Which doesn't exist here. Script is located in skin/frontend/default/blank2/js/live.js
