Say you want the following code in the content area of your page:

id = 300;

echo $app-id;

for($i=1; $i<=10; $i++){
echo "$i
";
}
?>

However, after you submit, the WYSIWYG converts the code to this:

<?php
echo "this is just a test";

$app->id = 300;

echo $app-id;

?>


To prevent this, we will add // at end.

<?php
// id = 300;

echo $app-id;

for($i=1; $i<=10; $i++){
echo "$i
";
}
// -->
?>


This is very similar to the old way of tags, but the current version of the wysiwyg editor doesnt always support it correctly.

Each asset must be assigned a unique System Name in order to be saved into Cascade. Think of the System Name like you think of the file names when you go to Save (or Save As) a Word document. The System Name is what Cascade displays in the asset tree. It also becomes part of the url and is factored into search engine optimization.

Important things to remember when naming an asset:

• The System Name is applied by choosing the System tab when creating an asset.
• The System Name should be Web friendly. A Web friendly System Name is one that:
  • is all lower case
  • is one word or more than one word separated by a hyphen –
  • has no spaces
  • contains no special characters (!@!#$%^&*)

Every folder containing pages that will be included in the left navigation must have a page named index. The index page is, by default, the home page.

When you create an ordered list on your Web page, the default style is numeric like this:

1. list item 1
2. list item 2
3. list item 3

Sometimes however you want your list to be ordered alphabetically instead of numerically. Apply an alpha style to your ordered list like this:

< ol style=”list-style: lower-alpha;” >

a. list item a

b. list item b

c. list item c

</ol>
