I have the following construct, which obviously is just HTML:

<script type="text/html" id="abc">
//... some text
</script>

Now I want to put some JavaScript into it. So it would look like:

<script type="text/html" id="abc">
//...
    <script type="text/javascript">
       alert("Hello!");
    </script>
//...
</script>

Of course, it won't work, as I would close the script-tag, before the whole code block ends.

So, is there a proper way to embed JavaScript into my script-block?

    you don't need the second script tags Commented Mar 18, 2015 at 12:55
  • @ztadic91 First tags are text/html. Second are text/javascript. Second ones are required. Commented Mar 18, 2015 at 12:55

    @ztadic91: The OP is probably trying to include scripts into some text/html templates. Commented Mar 18, 2015 at 12:55

    @YerkoPalma: The OP is trying to include scripts into some text/html templates. So simply leaving out the tag won't work. Commented Mar 18, 2015 at 12:58

if you really want to manually create Script tag inside <script> using JavaScript... then here is a way to achieve the same:

It won't work with text/html, please try as below:

<script type="text/javascript" id="abc">
//...
    var script=document.createElement('script');
    script.type='text/javascript';
    script.src=url;

    $("body").append(script);
//...
</script>

Nope, nope, nope. JavaScript inside <script type="text/html"> won't run.
