Try Yii::app()->clientScript->registerScript instead of Yii::app()->getClientScript()->registerScript

You should just make a new file, call it, 'myFuncs.js'. Place in a directory within your Yii Web App.

Then, in your view, simply call the js file.

Yii::app()->clientScript->registerScriptFile(Yii::app()->baseUrl.'/path/to/your/scripts/myFunc.js');
