How to add JS programmatically in Magento?

I need to add a JS file conditionally and programmatically inside a block file. I tried with these codes:

if (Mage::getStoreConfig('mymodule/settings/enable')) {
$this->getLayout()->getBlock('head')->addJs('path-to-file/file1.js');
} else {
$this->getLayout()->getBlock('head')->addJs('path-to-file/file2.js');
}

However, regardless of what the setting is, none of this file is loaded. I even tried to eliminate the condition and explicitly load one file only, but it still doesn't work. What have I done wrong here?
