Meta-HTML Placement Considerations

A limited subset of the meta-HTML processing is performed on any auxiliary JavaScript or style sheet files attached and downloaded to the web server. Each meta-HTML element that may be used in auxiliary files is noted in its description and in the following table. This meta-HTML processing occurs both for files attached to PeopleSoft pages and for files attached to iScript output:

• Attaching JavaScript as an auxiliary file:

  • Use the %JavaScript meta-HTML function to attach JavaScript as an auxiliary file to an HTML area. See %JavaScript meta-HTML element.

  • Use the GetJavaScriptURL method of the Response class to attach JavaScript as an auxiliary file to iScript output or a PeopleSoft page. See PeopleCode API Reference: GetJavaScriptURL method: Response class.

• Attaching a style sheet as an auxiliary file:

  • Use the %StyleSheet meta-HTML function to attach a style sheet as an auxiliary file to an HTML area. See %StyleSheet meta-HTML element.

  • Use the GetStyleSheetURL method of the Response class to attach a style sheet as an auxiliary file to iScript output or a PeopleSoft page. See PeopleCode API Reference: GetStyleSheetURL method: Response class.
