    the template coding

    Hi all,

     i  am very new to umbraco, i look at the runway kit's master template, 

    at the end it has 

    <script type="text/C#" runat="server">

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

    {

        umbraco.library.AddJquery();

        umbraco.library.RegisterJavaScriptFile("jquery.placeholder.js", "/scripts/Designit_Green/jquery.placeholder.js");

        umbraco.library.RegisterJavaScriptFile("Designit_Green.js", "/scripts/Designit_Green/Designit_Green.js");

    }

    </script>

    i have no idea what is that for? i mean the placeholder.js, is that needed?

    Hi Jerry and welcome to our :)

    What happens above is that some inline C# is being used to register/add jquery to the site and the two other scripts, jquery.placeholder and Designit_Green.js - I asume that the jquery.placeholder script is perhaps a fallback so old browsers like IE9 and below can have a nie placeholder effect, which is know comon i most modern browsers like chrome, firefox, safari and IE10.

    I must admit that it seems a bit cumbersome to do it this way rather than simply just referencing the files using a <script> tag pointing either at the ressource online or on disk.

    But perhaps this has to do with the concept of "Skinning" in Umbraco...I must admit that I don't know much about this part and I don't really think that many people have embraced this option. But it's great for starter kits and get people "going".

    I hope the above explanation makes sense!

    Have you worked with other CMS's before? And are you a backend or frontend developer?

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    /Jan
