Note
The scripts in each of the main folders - Control, Standard and Post Pagination - are
executed top-to-bottom. They can be dragged up or down in the pane to change their
order of execution. For example, content-loading scripts (snippets with variable data, for
instance) must come before scripts that replace data within loaded contents.
The Script pane allows to add and edit scripts and to manage scripts, or instance by organizing
them in subfolders and enabling/disabling them (see "Managing scripts" on page874).
Scripts can be exported and imported via the buttons or through drag & drop between the
Scripts pane and any location on the computer.
Note
Scripts included on the Scripts pane are completely distinct from the JavaScript
resources found in the "Resources pane" on page1059 (see "Using JavaScript" on
page557).
Think of scripts as server-side in the sense that they are executed through the Connect
modules (Server and Content Creation especially). Scripts have access to the whole
PlanetPress Connect JavaScript API (see "Standard Script API" on page1273), such as
the
record
object.
JavaScript resources, on the other hand, are only executed after the content creation is
done, generally in a browser.
Buttons
l Import...: Click to open a standard Open dialog to import a script. The script must have
the .OL-script extension.
l Export...: Click to open a standard Save As dialog to save the currently selected scripts to
disk. These scripts can be re-used in other templates. If more than one script is selected,
they are all saved to a single file. If some scripts are inside folders, this folder structure is
kept and will be restored when the scripts are imported.
