[opencms-dev] Inline Javascript within CDATA throwsXMLunmarshalling error

[Brock Haywood]

Thanks for your suggestions,

I think the only choice that I have is to put that into a jsp template.


My script code is an external js file and that code that I had presented
is 'page specific' and calls the SWFObject with different parameters.  

Also, I do realize that this specific javascript doesn't require a CDATA
but the xstandard editor always inserts the CDATA blocks to ensure that
all javascript is xhtml compliant.

Regards,

brock

Why don't you use a JSP template to assemble your final page and add the

script section there.
Also, why don't you stick your script code into an external .js file - 
then you won't need a cdata section at all. And for the specific 
Javascript code that you quoted, you won't need a cdata block - in this 
specific case, you have nothing therein that would make your xhtml 
invalid even when leaving away the CDATA wrapping.

You definitely cannot nest cdata sections, because in XML, the first ]]>

will terminate any CDATA that was opened before.
