Adding JavaScript at the bottom of a view using cakePHP

I have the following code

$this->addScript('<script type="text/javascript">
            $(document).ready(function() {
                alert("dsf");
            });
</script>');

Is it possible to add this at the bottom of my view? My reason being is it somehow always renders above the line w开发者_StackOverflow中文版here the jQuery library is included.

I've seen in the documentation they mention $scripts_for_layout, but I'm not sure how to use it.

If you want to place your JS code at a precise place in your view, you can use

$this->Html->scriptBlock('$(document).ready(function() {
            alert("dsf");
        }');

But if you do want to have your JS code in the header (but after the jQuery inclusion), you can just continue to use $this->addScript(), but make sure to place the variable $scripts_for_layout after the call to script():

echo $this->Html->script('jquery');
echo $scripts_for_layout;

You also not use CakePHP's helper for this, just put <script type="text/javascript"></script> at the bottom of your view after all your html

Put the <script> tag for jQuery in the header (after the CSS).
