Does anyone run in Sitecore by removing JavaScript from the page editor?

I am working on a custom page in Sitecore during the holidays, and I noticed a problem when Sitecore removes JavaScript lines from the editor.

Here is an overview of my current scenario:

  • I am adding Javascript to the page.
  • I save, register and publish.
  • The changes are there, and everything works.
  • I am working on this later and these changes no longer exist.

I am the only one who edited this page and publishes the current / correct version. It doesn't matter if I add the script through the "Editor" or "Edit HTML" functions of the content editor. However, it removes JavaScript; all my other changes are intact.

Is there something I am missing in the implementation of Sitecore for JavaScript? I'm not sure what else needs to be done to diagnose it, so I was hoping someone would have an explanation here.

Removing script tags in RTE in Sitecore is standard behavior when saving an element. However, in Sitecore 6.4.1 rev. 120113 and Sitecore 6.5 Update-4, a new property has been added to the web.config file:

<setting name="HtmlEditor.RemoveScripts" value="true"/>

Setting this value to false should solve your problem. If you are using an older version of Sitecore, check out this blogpost for a workaround for older versions.

Are you adding this javascript to the Rich Text Editor?

I saw the rich text editor highlight javascript as it saves. Usually we add javascript blocks as a separate sublanguage, which is pulled from a multi-line text field and rendered directly, rather than editing javascript through a rich text editor.
