javascript in template (again)
websharperjavascriptui.nexttemplating

I am trying to embed some javascript in the template. I saw that this problem has already been raised, but the solution given (CDATA section) doesn't seem to work with me; what am I doing wrong?

Template (main.html)

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head><title>test</title></head>
<body>
    <script type="text/javascript"> 
//<![CDATA[
        var a = "vara";
        var b = 'varb';
//]]>
    </script>
</body>
</html>

We just published Zafir.UI.Next 4.0.169.79-beta10, which fixes this issue. Thanks for the report!

Hi,

This is indeed a bug in our templating, where we apply more encoding than necessary. I posted it to GitHub.

Note that the CDATA trick is not necessary anymore in WebSharper 4, as we switched the parser from System.Xml to HtmlAgilityPack.
