elements in the results.

Changing the order of execution
When a record set is merged with a template to generate output, all scripts are executed once
for every record in the record set, in the order in which they appear in the Scripts pane at the

it will not run again automatically. So, scripts that produce content that contains one or more
selectors for other scripts, need to come first.
To change the order in which scripts are executed:

execution scope of a folder; see "Execution scope" on the next page. What you can do is
disable the script or the containing folder; see "Enable/disable scripts" on page390.
Script folders
Scripts can be organized in folders. Why would you do that? For three reasons:
