WordPress Plugin Quesiton

[Golgotha]

I'm creating my first Wordpress plugin. It's going good.
My question is getting the JS and CSS files written in the head.

I have used this code:

add_action('wp_head', 'addHeaderCode');
function addHeaderCode() {
    echo "\n".'<!-- Start Obama2008 -->'."\n";
    echo '<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="' . get_bloginfo('wpurl') . '/wp-content/plugins/obama2008ribbon/obama2008ribbon.css" />' . "\n";
        
    wp_register_script('obama2008ribbon', get_bloginfo('wpurl') . '/wp-content/plugins/obama2008ribbon/obama2008ribbon.js');
    wp_print_scripts('obama2008ribbon');
    
        echo '<!-- End Of Obama2008 -->'."\n"; 
} 

This code WORKS, but is this the best way to do it?

I'm not to sure with Wordpress plugins, did you try there community forums? I know they also have some great doucmentation on wordpress plugin creation on their site, this is probably near the top of that page

If you don't mind me asking, what is it? An Obama 2008 widget?

It's a plugin for WordPress that puts an Obama 2008 ribbon in the upper right corner of a blog. You can learn more here.
