bold. This is the default setting.
l
As text. This inserts the results as-is, meaning HTML tags and elements are
displayed as text in the output. In this scenario, "<br>" shows up in the text and does
not insert a line break.
l
As the value of an attribute of an HTML element. The selector of the script should
be an HTML element. Which attributes are available depends on the selected
HTML element. If the script's selector is an image (<img> element) for example, and
the attribute is src, the script will modify the image's source. The script's results
should be a valid value for the chosen attribute.
l
When checked, the option Convert fields to JSON string writes the results from
the script into an attribute or text as a JSON string. This is useful for Web contexts
where a front-end script can read this value easily.
l
OK: Click to save any changes made to the script, apply the changes in the template, and
close the dialog.
l
Cancel: Click to close the dialog without saving changes.
l
Expand: Click to convert the script generator to a regular script. Note that this action is not
reversible once the regular script has been saved.
l
Apply: Saves changes made to the script and applies the changes in the template
without closing the dialog.
Epanded Script window
When expanded, the Script window replaces all parts of the wizard below the Selector by a box
in which the script can be typed. See "Writing your own scripts" on page528.
Chart Script dialog
These are the options in the Chart Script dialog:
l
Name: The name of the script, making it easier to identify it.
l
Find: The Selector or Text to apply the result of the script to.
l
Selector: Uses CSS selectors to find the element to which the script applies.
l
Text: Uses text as a trigger for the script. The script applies to all instances of the
text found in the template.
l
Selector and Text: Uses text as a trigger for the script but only applies to text within
the specified Selector.
