Looking For File That Initializes Variable $Js_Files

[jpietrangelo]

I like to work with the latest versions of jQuery and jQuery plug-ins. But if I update jQuery in PS's root/js/jQuery directory and give it the new filename with the new version number, then $js_files no longer loads it into the template head section. If I leave it named the same as the version that came installed with PS (using v.1.4.6.2) then it works (obviously.)

 

So, all I'm trying to figure out (and I've looked everywhere) is in which file the variable, $js_files, is defined and/or initialized.

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,

 

Javascript sources are added to the $js_files array via the Tools::addJS function.

The jQuery version installed with PS is added in the setMedia function:

 

public function setMedia()
{
 global $cookie;
 Tools::addCSS(_THEME_CSS_DIR_.'global.css', 'all');
 Tools::addJS(array(_PS_JS_DIR_.'jquery/jquery-1.4.4.min.js', _PS_JS_DIR_.'jquery/jquery.easing.1.3.js', _PS_JS_DIR_.'tools.js'));
 if (Tools::isSubmit('live_edit') AND Tools::getValue('ad') AND (Tools::getValue('liveToken') == sha1(Tools::getValue('ad')._COOKIE_KEY_)))
 {
  Tools::addJS(array(
   _PS_JS_DIR_.'jquery/jquery-ui-1.8.10.custom.min.js',
   _PS_JS_DIR_.'jquery/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.js',
   _PS_JS_DIR_.'hookLiveEdit.js')
   );
  Tools::addCSS(_PS_CSS_DIR_.'jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.css');
 }
 $language = new Language($cookie->id_lang);
 if ($language->is_rtl)
  Tools::addCSS(_THEME_CSS_DIR_.'rtl.css');
}
