In Kohana 2, html::script() and html::stylesheet() accepted an array or string as their first arguments. This allowed you to easily add multiple scripts and styles simultaneously without needing to write several lines of redundant code. Kohana 3 has removed this useful ability so I thought I’d write a very quick extension to add the feature back in. The following script adds HTML::scripts() and HTML::styles() (As Kohana 3 slightly renamed their functions to HTML::script() and HTML::style() respectively).
Simply add the following file html.php to your /classes directory:
<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.');
class HTML extends Kohana_HTML {
public static function scripts(array $scripts, $attributes=array(), $index = FALSE)
{
$response = '';
//Data sanitisation
$index = $index ? TRUE : false;
if ( !is_array($attributes) ) $attributes = array();
foreach ( $scripts as $script )
$response .= html::script($script, $attributes, $index);
return $response;
}
public static function styles(array $styles, $attributes=array(), $index = FALSE)
{
$response = '';
//Data sanitisation
$index = $index ? TRUE : false;
if ( !is_array($attributes) ) $attributes = array();
foreach ( $styles as $style )
$response .= html::style($style, $attributes, $index);
return $response;
}
}
Download: html.php
Usage:
<?php
echo HTML::styles(array(
'assets/css/reset',
'assets/css/styles',
)
echo HTML::scripts(array(
'assets/js/jquery',
'assets/js/jquery.ui.all',
)
?>
Note: Both functions accept the latter 2 parameters available in Kohana 3 HTML::scripts() and HTML::styles(). If used, these arguments will be applied to every element in the first arguments array.
