Topic: mdb.js loaded in head

yddap17 pro asked 6 years ago


Hi there, I have an initialisation problem, while trying to develop a Joomla Template for Joomla 4.0.0. In Joomla in general it is clean code to load the JS-files in the <head>-part of the document. When I do so, the mdb.js gets executed before the <body> is loaded. So I get the following error "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'addEventListener' of null at Object.Waves.init" on line 13701 When I place the mdb.js in the body everything is ok. What is the best way to load the mdb.js in the head, to avoid this error and to correctly initialise the waves plugin?   Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your answer. Well, then I have to put it in the body. Maybe there will be an option in Joomla to put the js-files with clean code in the body.   Thanks!

Hi, Our js files are desinged to be loaded in the footer of the page, right before the body closing tag. There is no possibility to load them like this? Loading scripts in the page header may cause many problems or errors with the development. Regards
