javascript showing as plain text

Question

I'm using featherlight to call a file with ajax. It only consists of:

<script>
alert();
</script>

The scripts runs, I see the alert but it also renders it in plain text:

alert();

I can't figure out why.

Answer 1

Digging into it, featherlight adds a featherlight-inner class to every element of "first level" that it finds on the page.

So solution is to put the script tag into the main tag.

Answer 2

If you want to execute something when it opens, use afterOpen.
