Joomla! overridable media cheatsheet

This document includes fast examples to use @mbabker's method to use the media folder to allow stylesheets and javascript overrides:

I have also added the method to use overridable images in the media folder.

Images

JHtml::image('mod_transformer/printer.png', JText::_('JGLOBAL_PRINT'), null, true, false);

/templates/MY_TEMPLATE/images/mod_transformer/printer.png  
/media/mod_transformer/images/printer.png  

Function definition

Stylesheets

JHtml::stylesheet('mod_transformer/transformer.css', false, true, false);

Checks in this order:

/templates/MY_TEMPLATE/css/mod_transformer/transformer.css  
/media/mod_transformer/css/transformer.css  

Function definition

JHtml::script('mod_transformer/transformer.js', false, true);;

Checks in this order:
