Re: Javascript and CSS

Josh,

That will work if you do <script petal:content="structure /javascript" />.
The structure tag tells TAL to not parse out html entities (<>, etc)

However, petal will give you some problems if you do something like this:

<script>
    if(a < b) {
       window.alert("HI!");
    }
</script>

Petal has some intelligence built in so you can do:

<script>
   
    // <!--

    if(a < b) {
       window.alert("HI");
    }

    // -->
</script>

However, if you want to interpolate variables into js, you will have to 
do something like this:

<script>
    var a = "${a}";
    var b = "${b}";

    // <!--

    if(a < b) {
       window.alert("HI");
    }

    // -->
</script>

Hope this helps,
