Tip
Hover over the name of a script in the Scripts pane to highlight parts of the template
that are affected by the script.
l
Text, for example: @lastname@, or {sender}. The text doesn't have to have any
special characters, but special characters do make it easier to recognize the text for
yourself. In the Text Script Wizard, click Text and type the text to find.
Note
A script made with the Text Script Wizard for a block of data already runs
faster than a series of individual scripts, because it only has one selector.
However, searching for text can be a lengthy operation, compared to
searching for an element with an ID. When speed matters, select one of the
two remaining options: Selector or Selector and Text. See also: "Testing
scripts" on page268 and "Optimizing scripts" on page272.
l
An HTML/CSS selector:
n HTML elements, such as a paragraph. In the Text Script Wizard, click
Selector and type the HTML tag without the angle brackets, for example: p.
n
HTML elements with a specific class. In the Text Script Wizard, click Selector
and type the class name, including the preceding dot, for example: p.green for
all paragraphs with the class 'green' or .green for all kinds of HTML elements
that have the class 'green'. See "Styling and formatting" on page198 for an
explanation about CSS (Cascading Style Sheets).
n
An HTML element with a specific ID. In the Script Wizard, click Selector and
type the ID, including the preceding #, for example: #intro.
Note
Each ID should be unique. An ID can be used once in each section.
