is there a way to add CSS/JS later using EJS with nodejs/express

Question

i\'m using the EJS template engine with nodejs/express and i\'m wondering if it\'s possible to add another css or js file in e.g the index.ejs (not the layout.ejs)

As helpers and dynamicHelpers are gone in Express > 3, I rewrote pkyeck code so it works in Express 3.

So in app.js have this instead of the helpers / dynamicHelpers. Leave everything else as is.

app.locals({
    scripts: [],
  renderScriptsTags: function (all) {
    app.locals.scripts = [];
    if (all != undefined) {
      return all.map(function(script) {
        return '';
      }).join('\n ');
    }
    else {
      return '';
    }
  },
  getScripts: function(req, res) {
    return scripts;
  }
});
