Scripts Pane
The Scripts pane contains all of the scripts that are used to replace data on your page, or to
modify its look. Scripts can be exported and imported via the buttons or through drag & drop
between the Scripts Pane and any location on the computer.
Technical
Scripts included here are completely distinct from the JavaScript resources found in the Resources
Pane. 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 PrintShop Mail
Connect JavaScript API (see "API" on page 27), such as the Record. JavaScript resources, on the
other hand, are only executed in a client after the content creation is done, which is generally
in the browser.
Note
Scripts are always executed top-to-bottom. They can be dragged higher or lower in the pane to
change their order of execution. For example, content loading scripts (loading snippets, for instance)
must be present before scripts that replace data within that loaded contents.
