Javascript code in the editor?

Thank you for replying.

So let's say that in FCKEditor I entered the following:

This is just some plain text. Below it will be some silly javascript that will output something on screen
<script language="JavaScript">var out_string = "Maybe this is a dynamic value we will do something with";</script>

If I save that, the page refreshes and FCKEditor does not load, I just get this on the page:

' ; oFCKeditor.Create() ; //-->

This image is for reference so you can see on the page where FCKEditor is usually located:



Now after I save, here is the resulting page, with FCKEditor not being able to create itself:



So it seems that the Javascript that I put in there is killing FCKE. I'd like it to not only be maintained in the post, but in fact I'd also like for FCKE NOT to put <br> tags in the JavaScript - as that causes problems too.

Any further help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Here is how I set it up:

   <script type="text/javascript">
   <!--
   // Automatically calculates the editor base path based on the _samples directory.
   // This is usefull only for these samples. A real application should use something like this:
   // oFCKeditor.BasePath = '/fckeditor/' ;   // '/fckeditor/' is the default value.
   //var sBasePath = document.location.pathname.substring(0,document.location.pathname.lastIndexOf('_samples')) ;
   
   var oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor( 'Body' ) ;
   oFCKeditor.BasePath   = '/js/fckeditor/' ;
   oFCKeditor.Height   = 600 ;
   oFCKeditor.Value   = '<! Body>' ;
   oFCKeditor.Create() ;
   //-->
   </script>

<! Body> is a dynamic tag - so the Body of the current story is inserted dynamically. I don't see how escaping is going to help - as the only thing that should make it bomb w/o escaping is a single quote or line returns (which are already taken care of when the dynamic tag is replaced with the story body).

How would you escape it?

thanks again.

just a nudge to move this back to the top. I hope you are online today alfonso.

Ok I have no idea what you mean. An HTML validator is going to do nothing for me because it is a dynamic page. And what do you mean server integration?

For anyone else who has this problem, here is the fix

So when the value is saved, you want parse it and check for "</script>" in the text. If you find it, change it to "<\/script>"; If you don't do that, FCKEditor will strip out all your JS code, and when you save it again, it'll all be gone.
