Embedding Javascript into HTML Sidebar Nugget

Post by Andrew@GotSoul »

Is there anyway I can use the following Javascript in an HTML sidebar nugget?
<script language="JavaScript1.2">

var ie=document.all&&navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Opera")==-1
var dom=document.getElementById&&navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Opera")==-1

//Specify IFRAME display attributes
var iframeprops='width=525 height=400 marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" hspace="0" vspace="0" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"'

//Specify 7 URLs to display inside iframe, one for each day of week
var daycontent=new Array()
daycontent[1]="monday.htm" //Monday content
daycontent[2]="content/tuesday.htm" //Tuesday content
daycontent[3]="wednesday.htm"
daycontent[4]="thursday.htm"
daycontent[5]="friday.htm"
daycontent[6]="saturday.htm"
daycontent[0]="sunday.htm"

//No need to edit after here
if (ie||dom)
document.write('<iframe id="dynstuff" src="" '+iframeprops+'></iframe>')

var mydate=new Date()
var mytoday=mydate.getDay()

function dayofweek_iframe(){
if (ie||dom){
var iframeobj=document.getElementById? document.getElementById("dynstuff") : document.all.dynstuff
iframeobj.src=daycontent[mytoday]
}
}

window.onload=dayofweek_iframe

</script>
Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Andrew.

Yes, but not directly. Unless I'm mistaken, the sidebar HTML Nugget strips script. But the event HTML-Head Nugget allows Javascript that goes straight into the <head> of your document.

So, you could make your Javascript reference a particular chunk of HTML by ID, put the script in a Head Nugget, and put the chunk of HTML in a sidebar nugget. Then they should interact as expected.
