I successfully added some custom JS and CSS to my head section (look here).

But If I try to add a script at the block before_body_end then I get:

There has been an error processing your request

Invalid method Mage_Core_Block_Text_List::addItem(Array

    [0] => skin_js
    [1] => black/NewsletterPopup/js/main.js

    because addItem method not exist core/text_list you can call your custom modules block there.

  • Ok I see, addItem is not supported for blocks with type core/text_list for whatever reason. I can call my modules block which includes html., But how can I properly include my script?

    your way is proper to include JS file. you can access js functions in your block which you added under before_body_end.

  • Ok I see, so I could just add a <script></script> block to the template with the script.

I solved it by changing my layout file to:

<layout>
    <!-- ... --->
    <default>
        <!-- ... --->
        <reference name="before_body_end">
            <block type="core/text" name="newsletterpopup_main.js">
                <action method="setText">
                    <text><![CDATA[<script type="text/javascript" src="skin/frontend/base/default/fekete/NewsletterPopup/js/main.js"></script>]]></text>
                </action>
            </block>
        </reference>
        <!-- ... --->
    </default>
    <!-- ... --->
</layout>
