[wp-hackers] Load scripts in header only when needed

[Ade Walker]

Very useful. I've bookmarked it for future reference. Thanks!

But what about non-admin pages? How do I avoid loading the js in every
non-admin page, given that I only want the js on pages (most likely single
post or page.php or a page template) where the gallery is called?

Thanks.
