I have to create a new site for the front end of one of our systems... now one of the first things the site does, is when you go to the homepage, a script is run to determine if java is installed.. if it is, you can proceed to login.. if not, you are told that you need to install it...
Now, Ive no experience with either scripting or htmal coding.. but hav examined the index.html and script files associated with the original site, and can see whats going on.. I just need to know whether this is something I can translate into a site designed by artisteer?
Im hoping I can just insert/manipulate the code to get it to work... I dont know if I would simply need to do this by inserting html code via the Edit/Html Source function, or if I would edit the index file after importing it...
Is it possible to edit or manipulate the index.html whilst developing the site in artisteer, or is this only created when you export it...??
Before I spend hours trying to get this to work.. will it be possible???
Cheers

Would be really good if I could view the working templete's index.html file as Im going a long but dont this is possible.. and after you have exported it, you then cant re-import it to edit it...
Is their not a "temp" file somewhere that I can edit on the fly whilst also using artisteer...
Is this going to be a case of desiging the site, then trying to get the scripts working afterwards??

Ok, so through trial and error.. managed to get all of the scripts working.. but it is a pain having to do it in Artisteer, export to html.. test, then if I need to make changes, go back into Artisteer, make the changes, export it again, but as this overwrites the html I had changed earlier, I then have to put all that code back in to test again.. very long winded...There is quite a bit of code that needs to be inserted to enable the scripts to funciton properly.. and this is removed each time I have to go back into artistter to make layout changes...
Adding html code only applies to the article or cell I happen to be in at the time.. is it not possible to view/edit the entire html file alongside actually being able to work within artisteer in real time??
I suppose the only thing I can do is leave all of the scripting til all of the site has been designed.. but the results of the scripts can alter they visual appearance of the site.. so this is hard to do...
Any advice to make my life easier would be welcome!!
Thanks

I'm actually needing to be able to do something similar, to just be able to view/edit the entire HTML code of index.html (not just the code of certain sections, etc) without having to export the page, manually enter what I need then find out I need to tweak something else and re-export it.
It would be a GREAT time saver to be able to have complete editing control over the HTML like in other WYSIWYG editors and be able to manipulate the backend code without issue.

Nevermind, I think I found the answer to my question.
When editing a particular section there is a checkbox at the very bottom that allows to edit the entire HTML of the page (minus the footer and anything in the <head> tag). Its not the ultimate solution but its a decent workaround for me for the time being.
