 Posted: Fri Dec 19, 2025 8:34 pm Post subject: Can Abyss inject Javascript into <head> on every page? |
 |
|
Hello folks,
I don't know how to ask this question, but I will try to explain what I am hoping that Abyss X2 can do for me.
I use FontAwesome on all my Abyss websites. In order to use FontAwesome, I need to add some Javascript code to all my headers of every page:
| Code: | <head>
<script src="https://kit.fontawesome.com/1234567890.js" crossorigin="anonymous" async defer></script>
</head>
|
...where 1234567890 above is replaced with my FontAwesome kit's unique code.
Until now, I've added that script code individually to each of the sections on my websites. By sections, I mean sections such as my PHP scripts for CMS, forums, guestbook, statistics, etc. And that's for each of my sites (hosts).
I am inquiring at this time if I can somehow configure my Abyss hosts to apply (inject?) that FontAwesome Javascript code, and I could then remove my current FontAwesome Javascript code from each of my individual sections (scripts).
I hope that makes sense.
Even better would be, if I could somehow configure Abyss in a single place with that Javascript code, and then Abyss applies that Javascript code to every page of every host that Abyss serves up.
I'm not that technical, so I would need details how to accomplish whatever Abyss if capable of, if at all.
Thanks in advance & have a great day.
Regards,
John |

JMMotyer,
XSSI can come to rescue.
The idea is to declare HTML files as processed by XSSI (Server side includes) instea d of .shtml and .shtml only.
Then put that snippet of code in a file called fa.html for example and insert in each of your .html files a directive to include fa.html.
The article in https://aprelium.com/abyssws/articles/xssi-introduction.html can help explain how XSSI syntax works and links to the official documentation of all directives.

Thanks for getting back to me, folks.
I thought that I have now done what you suggest, by following what you describe in your above reply, but nothing is happening.
1. I created a file with an shtml extension, and called it fa.shtml;
2. I inserted the snippet into that fa.shtml file;
3. I placed that fa.shtml file in the root of that host;
4. In Abyss, for XSSI Parameters for a host, I added a Virtual Path of "/" (without the quotes);
5. I checked the box in front of Enable XSSI Processing (to enable it).
But nothing is happening... the snippet is not being called.

That is basically what I have been doing this past year, but without XSSI... here's how I have done it until now:
1. I have a /common folder containing files that are shared by all 14 of my Abyss hosts.
2. Each of my Abyss hosts has an alias called /common that points to that shared common folder.
3. I have a file called font_awesome.php that contains my snippet. I know that I could just use an HTML extension for that file, but all my other common files are PHP, so for consistency I used PHP.
Next:
4. In my website's CMS' footer.php, I call that font_awesome.php file using an INCLUDE;
5. In my website's guestbook's index.php, I call that same font_awesome.php file using an identical INCLUDE;
6. In my website's tracking script's index.php, I call that same font_awesome.php file using an identical INCLUDE.
| Code: | | <?php include 'D:\Web\_common\_globals\font_awesome.php' ; ?> |
Between my 14 hosts running on Abyss X2, that's a few dozen places on those hosts that have PHP files that call that same font_awesome.php files with that above INCLUDE.
I am curious how using Abyss' XSSI method differs from my own method that I've been using for the past year.
What I wish to be able to accomplish for each of my Abyss 14 hosts: for Abyss to call that font_awesome.shtml file for every page that Abyss serves up, so that I do not need to configure (and periodically update) many individual apps (PHP scripts) running on those hosts to call that file.
I know that I'm not explaining it very well, but I hope that the above makes sense.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
John |
