Newbie: External Editors

[Robert K. Foster]

All of the documentation in Scriptbuilder seems to assume that all
webpage/website development will be done within Scriptbuilder. I'm
confused. What if you are using another software package for website
development, such as NetObjects' own Fusion, how do you add scripts
developed using Scriptbuilder? Is it simply a matter of creating an html
file in Scriptbuilder, with the script code in it, and then cutting and
pasting the generated code into the other Editor's webpages? I would
rather not edit files created with another program in Scriptbuilder. I
can't seem to find even a basic tutorial on how to get started with this
software, and I don't mean how to write javaScript or Perl.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Bob.

Robert,
What I usually do if I am using another editor to create the html and SB
to create the javascript, is make a reference in the HTML to an include
javascript file (such as <SCRIPT src='test.js'></SCRIPT> - replace test with
the name of the javascript file you are creating). After I complete the
coding in SB, and save the file, I then switch over to my browser or other
app, and run the html. I can then toggle back and forth, making changes
until satisfied with the outcome. I'm sure there are other methods, but
this works ok for me.

Thanks for the Info. I finally found the ScriptBuilder manual on the
NetObjects website, why they don't have it on the CD-ROM I don't know.

This seems like the best way, to use .js include files.
