Question

Is it possible to include JavaScript markup in wiki pages?

Answer

Yes. Using this recipe you can embed JavaScript in your pages. However, keep in mind that allowing JavaScript (as well as html) on an editable wiki page is dangerous: code inserted by a malicious visitor could be quite harmful. In this case, password protecting the pages is a reasonable suggestion.

Put in your cookbook directory this file: JavaScript-Editable.phpΔ

then add this to your config.php file:

 include_once('cookbook/JavaScript-Editable.php');

This recipe won't parse the text within (:html:) and (:htmlend:).

Example in your wiki page:

   (:html:)
   <script language="JavaScript">
       alert("Thanks to PM for that markup.");
   </script>
   (:htmlend:)

Notes

It must be stressed again and again that including JavaScript on an editable page could be dangerous.
