Hey, I'm trying to add a little javascript to my posts but NOT my main page. If I stick it in the header it works fine but it shows up on my index as well, so I just want it in the singlepost.php but it doesn't work there, any help would be VERY appreciated :)
PS I put:
<script type="text/javascript" src="myscript.js"></script>
in header.php and it works. I want this to load everytime someone views on my posts. Thanks in advance!
If I stick it in the header it works fine but it shows up on my index as well
Yes because those theme files all call header.php
I just want it in the singlepost.php
You could try creating an exact copy of header.php - call it something like myheader.php - and it would contain the javascript you mentioned. Then in single.php replace...
<?php get_header(); ?>
... with ...
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/myheader.php'); ?>
Also be sure to peruse the docs at the link iridiax gave you.

Its not working for me :(
If anyone has another solution to execute some simple javascript when a post is viewed I will owe you forever. And yes I did read through all of those docs before starting this thread.
What is it you're trying to do specifically?

I'm trying to run a script that pops up when a user goes to my individual pages. This informs them that the content is 'locked' and they have to contact me to unlock it.
I use this same script on HTML sites without a problem but am having a really tough time with wordpress for some reason :)

Nevermind it appears its working fine in IE but not firefox (and yes I have js enabled in ff ;) ). So I guess its a different issue than I thought, thanks.
Hi bombora. Glad to see you making some progress. Perhaps give the Firebug extension for Firefox a shot. One of the things it's good at is debugging javascripts. Beyond that I'm out of ideas.
