Question

I'm using FlexibleSkin on a publicly-accessible, read-only TWiki installation.

I would like to incorporate a web counter (specifically, SpyLog). This counter is supposed to go on top of each page, as Javascript code.

However, when I paste it into FlexibleSkinTopBar, the < signs become &gt and < etc. The HTML gets processed somehow (evidently). I want to have it poured really raw.

I tried editing the FlexibleSkin TMPL file, but got the same result.

Any advice for me?

More specifically, THIS is the code I'm trying to incorporate:

<!-- SpyLOG f:0211 -->
<div STYLE="behavior:url(#default#clientCaps)" ID="MC"></div>
<script language="javascript"><!--
Mu="u4599.33.spylog.com";Md=document;Mnv=navigator;Mp=1;
Mn=(Mnv.appName.substring(0,2)=="Mi")?0:1;Mrn=Math.random();
Mt=(new Date()).getTimezoneOffset();
Mz="p="+Mp+"&rn="+Mrn+"&t="+Mt;
Md.cookie="b=b";Mc=0;if(Md.cookie)Mc=1;Mz+='&c='+Mc;
Mz+='&title='+escape(Md.title)+'&partname='+escape('others');
if(self!=top){Mfr=1;} else{Mfr=0;}Msl="1.0";
if(!Mn&&Mnv.userAgent.indexOf("Opera")<0&&Mnv.userAgent.indexOf("Mac")<0&&
(Mnv.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE 5")>-1||Mnv.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE 6")>-1))
{Mid="{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}";Midn="ComponentID";
Mfl=MC.getComponentVersion(Mid,Midn);Mct=MC.connectionType;Mz+='&fl='+Mfl+'&ct='+Mct;}

Answer

TWiki escapes < and > if they are not a pair on the same line. See answer in JavaScriptExecutionProblem.
