I am a super beginner to EE and was literally thrust into managing my company's website that is built in EE without training. I'm not a programmer, I'm a designer, so it's been taking me awhile to plug through this. So I might need some dumbed down language :)
I want to create a page that has some Javascript on it. Do I need to create a new template JUST so I can put some javascript on it? And how do I communicate to EE that I want the page I created to go with that template?
I duplicated the page/index template and renamed it to clinician-map (the same name of the page I created in the publisher). EE didn't like that and the page subsequently broke. All I want to do is insert one javascript item, this seems way too inefficient for just one page. Help??
(using EE 1.6.8) Here is my code from clinician-map template.
{assign_variable:my_weblog="page"}
{assign_variable:my_template_group="page"}
{embed="embeds/html_head" url_title="{segment_2}"}
{embed="embeds/html_styles"}
{embed="embeds/html_scripts"}
<?php include_once("analyticstracking.php") ?>
</head>
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="{my_weblog}" disable="categories|member_data|pagination|trackbacks" limit="1" sort="asc" }
<body class="{url_title}">
{/exp:weblog:entries}
<div id="wrapper">
{embed="embeds/html_headerPlusLeftNav"}
<div id="content">
<div id="contentMain">
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="{my_weblog}" disable="categories|member_data|pagination|trackbacks" limit="1" sort="asc"}
<h2>{title}</h2>
{page_body}
{/exp:weblog:entries}
<!--contactforminfo -->

Okay. I ended up just creating a new webblog and new template group and finally it seems like it's working. My javascript is not, but I can figure that out.
Thank you so much for your patience with helping me!
