    Hi Pratik,
    My best suggestion is to to create a Magento module (extension) so that Magento core will recognize your code or scripts. I’ve search a basic tutorial for you as a reference on how to do it. Please read this tuts http://inchoo.net/ecommerce/magento/programming-magento/magento-hello-world-module-extension/.

    Good luck!
