Exclude css and javascript from home page?

[damiantaylor]

Hi DrByte,
If you're talking about the combining stylesheets post, it did deliver gains, I'm just after more!

My web host has recently switched mySQL query caching on and done some other tuning work for me but my home page can still take 4 or 5 seconds to load first time in which I want to reduce.
Once inside the site, each page only takes 1 or 2 seconds to load presumably because of caching?

I'm new to all this (the php I've learned is thanks to Zen Cart and I've only been using Zen Cart for a few months) but wanted to share the css/js combination technique I'd learned in case it was useful to anyone else.
I've been given loads of help by kind people such as yourself on here so just wanted to give something back.

You're right in that I do have lots of individual universal stylesheets because of the mods I've added.
My idea as far as the home page goes is to only load what I need.
If it doesn't reduce the load time significantly, I'll put it back as it was.
I'm kind of grabbing at straws in my attempt to make my home page load as quickly as possible!

Have you tried this? https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=21

Yeah, done all that.
I've done as you suggested and started looking at moving my universal js and css to page specific if I can.
Hopefully I'll be able to do something there :)
