Hi George,
Maybe you could try using the <HTML> mode of one of the new editors (such as HTMLArea) to solve your problem ?

In Jahia 405, can anyone suggest how to embed javascript script in HTML using the "add text" function other than putting it inline directly on the "onclick" event of a link or control. The latter is is fine for very simple things but is difficult to work with for anything more complex. Is there any way to prevent the CDATA modification to the script.
In the 404 version I was able to "add text" by pasting in html using the
simple text editor. When saved the content looked as expected. There was
a drawback
in that the content could not be edited so you needed to delete and
re-create when
changing. What also was allowed was the use of embedded script fragments.
This allows
doing very useful things like launching desktop programs on the intranet
from a button on
the portal. The simple file shown below could be pasted in as-is, complete
with <html> tags
and it worked out fine. Now it creates a syntax error in IE version 6 that
is caused by wrapping the function in a CDATA section like:
<script type="text/javascript"> <![CDATA[ function executeCommands() { alert("here"); } ]]> </script>
Here is the original script. ----------------- <html> <body>
<script> function executeCommands() { alert("here"); } </script> <CENTER> Boilerplate <INPUT onclick=executeCommands(); type=button value="Run script" name="cmdNote"> </CENTER>
</body> </html> ------------
