   8 If you ever used [Flexy](http://pear.php.net/package/HTML_Template_Flexy),
   9 which I consider a really great TE, you have most probably already stumbled
  10 across Flexy's inability to step into `<script>` blocks.
  11
  12 A really easy method to overcome this problem is to define scriptOpen and
  13 scriptClose properties in your base objects outputted by Flexy:
  14
  15 ```php
  16 <?php
  17 class FlexyObject {
  18   var $scriptOpen = "\n<script type="text/javascript"> <!--\n";
  19   var $scriptClose = "\n//--> </script>n";
  20   var $scriptData = "var foo = 'bar';";
  21 }
  22 ```
  23
  24 Outputting above object with the following template wont work:
  25
  26 ```html
  27 <html>
  28 <script type="text/javascript">
  29   {scriptData:h}
  30 </script>
  31 </html>
  32 ```
  33
  34 Instead:
  35
  36 ```html
  37 <html>
  38 {scriptOpen:h}
  39   {scriptData:h}
  40 {scriptClose:h}
  41 </html>
  42 ```
  43
  44 ...works like a charm... ;)

  46 Alan said, Flexy wont step into Javascript blocks because that caused
  47 massive problems with the Smarty convertor...
