I have a variable containing javascript code which looks like this:
$this->item->test_script = '<script type = "text/javascript">code for url</script>'
However when I view it in inspect element, the script tags were eliminated, thus not showing the link I tried to display in the article. Is there a way to escape script tags so as for them not to be removed by joomla?
If you are adding this script code in the editor then there are some settings available in the editor plugin, where you can set whether script is allowed or not in the editor.
In case there is some other way using which this variable is getting added then please specify that.
Why don't you use the Joomla methods for adding scripts?
Like this: Adding JavaScript and CSS to the page
Or encode and later decode the var with php
