Source Code Assets

Use source code assets to enter source code or scripts such as JavaScript or PHP into a page. Because Modern Campus CMS uses XML/XSL to render pages, source code assets must have valid XML syntax to avoid causing errors when placed on pages.

Create a source code asset using any programming language as long as it is valid XML, or the page won't render correctly.

Note: Boolean attributes, or attributes that don't have a value assigned, are not valid XML. For these attribute types, add the attribute name as the value, for example, <script async></script> should be written as <script async="async"></script>. All "&" must be encoded as well.

A common use for source code assets is inserting a news or events feed into a page.
