addToHEAD( $id, $header, $requires )

  Adds $header to the HTML header (the tag). This is useful for Plugins that want to include some javascript custom css.
  • $id - Unique ID to prevent the same HTML from being duplicated. Plugins should use a prefix to prevent name clashes (e.g EDITTABLEPLUGIN_JSCALENDAR)
  • $header - the HTML to be added to the section. The HTML must be valid in a HEAD tag - no checks are performed.

  • requires optional, comma-separated list of id's of other head blocks this one depends on.
  All TWiki variables present in $header will be expanded before being inserted into the section.
