I have been reading the wiki for javascript but maybe because of my lack of practice I still don't get clearly certain issues.
For example, I want to enter a js in a sidebox, it is pretty clear to me how to enter the <body> part, but not the <head> part, that is for a script that has two parts, of course.
Thanks.

Re: Where to enter a javascript that goes in header
Try html_header.php located in templates/custom_template/common.
This is where the headers (<head> </head>) are generated.
I don't know if that's the best way, but it worked for me.

That would be an ugly hack, and doesn't use the built-in autoplugin capability.

As the wiki article states, as well as the docs in the /docs/ folder of your Zen Cart files, you simply create a jscript_whatever.js file in the jscript folder of your template, and its contents will be automatically referenced in the <head> section of your pages. The article goes into detail of various alterations supported..

AHA! To install the Comodo Corner of Trust Logo I used the ugly hack, it works, but...it might not be best practice. Originally Posted by DrByte

I will test the other alterations too.
Thanks for answer.
And thank too to pelasgos, I appreciate your good will.
When I say "ugly hack" I am not trying to be demeaning, just a quick way to reference it, I think that is DrByte's demeanor too.

Re: Where to enter a javascript that goes in header?
An ungly hack is always an ungly hack.
It worked for me in the past, but now that DrByte showed the right way, I give it a try..
Thanks for pointing it DrByte, and thanks ckosloff for being the "triger" for that.

I tried loading a javascript the way you describe. Originally Posted by DrByte

Something to be aware of...

All right, it won't break IH2 if the jscript includes the <script> tags and is renamed to the .php extension.
