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.
l New: Displays a drop-down that shows the following options:
l Control Script: A Control Script affects the output of a template per record as a
whole, instead of parts of the content. See "Control Scripts" on page425 and
"Control Script API" on page917.
l Standard Script: Adds a new empty standard script. Double-clicking the new script
opens the script editor, where you can write code (see "Writing your own scripts" on
page389).
Tip
Select Text Script instead of Standard Script to create a Standard script that
is opened with the Script Wizard.
l Post Pagination Script (Print context only): Adds a Post Pagination script, which
runs on the Print context after the output has been paginated (see "Post Pagination
Scripts" on page441).
l Folder: Adds a folder in which scripts can be placed for easier management. See
"Script folders" on page396.
l Text Script: When you add variable data to a template, a script of this type is
created by default. See "Variable Data" on page347.
l Dynamic Image script: Provided that its selector refers to an image, this script
dynamically changes the image for each record. See "Dynamic images" on
