JavaScript

Questions answered by this recipe

• How can I embed static JavaScript into a wiki page?

(For information about using wiki markup to create or edit JavaScript, see JavaScript-Editable.)

This section is optional; use it to indicate the types of questions (if any) this recipe is intended to answer.

Description

Getting JavaScript into a wiki page is easily done by creating a custom markup for it. For example, weather.com provides me with the following JavaScript code for displaying weather information on a webpage:

So, to create a custom (:weather:) markup that will output this JavaScript code, define a custom markup in local/config.php or a group customization as:

Markup('weather', 'directives',
  '/\\(:weather:\\)/',
  Keep("<script src='http://voap.weather.com/weather/oap/75025?template=LAWNH&amp;par=null&amp;unit=0&amp;key=77351fbfbbfc1099f80fa310e5f58b52'></script>"));

This results in:

Injecting JavaScript

You can inject JavaScript either in the skin template, or in the $HTMLHeaderFmt or $HTMLFooterFmt arrays.

Examples using the arrays:

• see scripts/stdconfig.php injecting pub/pmwiki-utils.js.

• $HTMLHeaderFmt['specific- javascript'] =
  '<script>
     // the JavaScript code to be injected
   </script>';
