addHeaderItem() from theme template
Permalink
So I've been searching high and low for an answer that I thought would be rather simple. Sifted through countless forum posts on this topic but have not found a working solution.
I have a template that I would like to load some javascript files and some css files. These files are specific to only one theme template, not for the entire theme and not for a block.
In the template file I assumed the following would work:
However, as I have learned, this is "added" to the header after the header has been output.
Is there a way to add an item to the header from a theme template file?

Is there a way to add an item to the header from a theme template file?
Thanks Remo.
Unfortunately, its an existing template that needs modification.
That was my original thought but the page reverts to the default.php template and not the ~/themes/my_theme/my_template/view.php file. And I can't find any where in the DB that specifies what file should be used for the page type's template file other than its handle.
Ideas?
Thanks again,

Seems I have dyslexia. I had scr="..." rather than src="...

also helps to grab an instance. $v = View::getInstance();
$v->addHeaderItem('js string via htmlhelper or otherwise','CONTROLLER'); //if you need to make sure it is loaded last say with foxycart or something.

if you create a new template, instead of mytemplate.php create a directory with the name "mytemplate" and put view.php and view.css into that directory
