How to included an embedded js file

Posted by Community Admin on 18-Dec-2011 00:00

Hello,

I am asking about how to embed a js file in a custom widget, I am following the steps below however I got the error attached in "Error.png":
1- Set the "BuildAction" of the js file is set to "EmbeddedResource" (please review "JsBuildAction,png")
2- Add the registration of the js file in the AssemblyInfo.cs of the web application

[assembly: System.Web.UI.WebResource("SitefinityWebApp.ImageControl.jquery.prettyPhoto.js", "text/javascript")]

3- add a link to the js file from my custom widget

<sitefinity:ResourceFileName="SitefinityWebApp.ImageControl.jquery.prettyPhoto.js"AssemblyInfo="SitefinityWebApp" />

Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Amr

Hello Amrelsayed,

Can you try to make the registration as bellow:

<sf:ResourceLinks id="resourcesLinks1" runat="server" UseEmbeddedThemes="true">

<sf:ResourceFile Name="SitefinityWebApp.ImageControl.jquery.prettyPhoto.js" AssemblyInfo="SitefinityWebApp.ImageControl, SitefinityWebApp"/>

</sf:ResourceLinks>

Where the highlighted part is the class name of the control in which you are going to use the extension.

I am trying to use the ResourceLinks control to embed a JS file a CSS file along with including the built-in JQuery. I think I have all the steps correct, but no go. Looks like an issue with Sitefinity maybe. Here is what I did:

1) Set the build action to embedded for the js and css files

2) Add this to AssemblyInfo.cs:

[assembly: WebResource("SitefinityWebApp.Widgets.Ads.Resources.JavaScript.plugin.js", "text/javascript")]

[assembly: WebResource("SitefinityWebApp.Widgets.Ads.Resources.Stylesheets.internAds.css", "text/css")]

3) Added the correct resource links format to the template files:

<sf:ResourceLinks ID="resourcesLinks" runat="server">

<sf:ResourceFile JavaScriptLibrary="JQuery" />

<sf:ResourceFile

Name="SitefinityWebApp.Widgets.Ads.Resources.JavaScript.plugin.js"

AssemblyInfo="SitefinityWebApp.Widgets.Ads.InternAd, SitefinityWebApp" />

<sf:ResourceFile

Name="SitefinityWebApp.Widgets.Ads.Resources.Stylesheets.internAds.css"

AssemblyInfo="SitefinityWebApp.Widgets.Ads.InternAd, SitefinityWebApp" /> </sf:ResourceLinks>

Note that I am including the widget right in the SitefinityWebApp project instead of using a compiled widget.

Your help will be really appreciated.

Thanks,

G

Hello,

Can you try setting the UseEmbeddedThemes property on ResourceLinks control to true? Also for the CSS file, please set the Static property to true.
