im trying to link a bootstrap js file and css file to Cakephp 3x
<?= $this->Html->css('bootstrap') ?> <?= $this->Html->css('bootstrap-theme') ?> i use this code to src/Template/Layout/default.ctp and the css file is working but when i try to link the js with the same approach
<?= $this->Html->script('jquery') ?> <?= $this->Html->script('bootstrap') ?> the problem is the Js is not working, thank you for your response
You can include js like this
<?= $this->Html->script('https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.2.2/jquery.min.js') ?> Or if your js file exist in your project then it must be in webroot/js folder then you can include file like this
<?= $this->Html->script('custom.js') ?> 
place all css files inside webroot/css folder and js file inside webroot/js
and access the files like this in view files
<?= $this->Html->css('owl.carousel');?> <?php echo $this->Html->script('jquery.plugin') ?> if you want to place all assets in some other folder like css, js, pugin etc create a folder assets or anything else that you want and place all the folder inside it use structure like this
webroot/assets/css/ webroot/assets/js/
you can access the files like this in view files
<?= $this->Html->css('/assets/css/owl.carousel');?> <?php echo $this->Html->script('/assets/js/jquery.plugin') ?> remember the slash before assets
You can use:- $this->Url->build('/'); // this refer till webroot folder. after that your folder path and js or css file name.
Example:-
<a href="<?php echo $this->Url->build('/'); ?>js/your_js_file.js"></a> <a href="<?php echo $this->Url->build('/'); ?>css/your_css_file.css"></a>
