Ahhhhhh, now I get it. I just didn't follow through with my thinking since
that part kind of happens "under the covers". It's just like css and images
are served by cocoon.
Actually, it would have worked had I used the scripts folder to hold my script
instead of creating a new 'javascripts' folder, since the cocoon default
sitemap has:
<!-- JavaScript scripts -->
<map:match pattern="scripts/*.js">
<map:read mime-type="text/javascript" src="resources/scripts/{1}.js"/>
</map:match>
But then, I would never have learned what's really going on.
Anyway, thanks for the great explanations and for your patience in spoon
feeding me the info. Now I just hope this message doesn't get posted 6 times
like my other ones have been :-)
