### HTMLgen 2.2.2 Online Documentation

## Embedded Scripts

### FEATURES

A recent addition is support for scripting languages in Netscape. This was primarily intended for JavaScript®, but other scripting languages available through plug-in support such as you-know-what may also be triggered. The callback attributes, (`onChange, onBlur, onFocus, onSelect`), have been placed in the appropriate classes throughout HTMLgen. They show up mostly in the Forms objects but the `onLoad` and `onUnload` callbacks are available to the Document class as well.

The Script class is the container of the script body itself. The Document class has an attribute called script. This can be set to either an instance of the Script class or a sequence of such instances. It'll be emitted in the HEAD portion and will therefore be loaded into browser memory before any of the page contents which might use the functions defined there. Script instances can be placed in the body of the document but be aware that functions must be defined before they are referenced. (OK that's obvious to you I know.:-)
