Inserting Scripts to Your Web Pages

Using the Script module you can insert ready code snippets in your web pages. You can use this module to:

• Add functional elements to your site pages, in addition to the existing Plesk Sitebuilder modules. With the help of such elements you can
  • Display time and date
  • Display pop-up messages
  • Set up automatic forwarding to other web pages
  • Set up a variety of visual effects: change of background color, text effects on mouse hover, and more
  • Participate in banner networks
  • Place interactive elements on the page: games (for example, "Miner"), calculator, entertainment tests

  - and much more

Plesk Sitebuilder allows you to add any code written in any scripting or other language into the Script module: HTML, DHTML, XML, PHP, Perl/CGI, JavaScript, Java applets, and many more. You can find all kinds of third party scripts on popular webmasters' resources available on the Internet.

The scripts will work correctly in case the publishing server is configured accordingly: study the Readme file for the script you wish to add to find out what is required to be installed on the publishing server in order for the script to work properly. Note that to preview a script, its requirements must be met by the server where Plesk Sitebuilder is installed (contact your Plesk Sitebuilder service provider on that matter).

Note: PHP scripts will work only if the site is published as static HTML pages and the IIS web server is configured in such a way that HTML pages are treated as PHP.

To insert a piece of code to your site:

1. Go to the Edit step.
2. In the Modules area, click the Script module icon and keeping the left mouse button pressed drag the icon to the page.
3. Click Change Script Source and replace the default text with the code of your script.
4. Click OK.
