Description (last modified by )
Problem is always there. It should be easy to reproduce. In <project>/templates/ticket.html the following code:
<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
function check_ticket(thisform)
{
with(thisform)
{
var diagnostics = field_diagnostic_info.value.split(" ");
if (field_diagnostic_info.value.length == 126 &&
diagnostics[0] == "Please")
{
alert("Please provide errors and diagnostic messages.");
field_diagnostic_info.focus();
return(false);
}
}
return(true);
}
</script>
will throw internal error on token '&&':

I don't understand what you mean. Javascipt is defined in <head> section of ticket.html and works fine when loaded directly from the browser. That's how Javascripts work.
Upon using your suggestion, I get no Trac internal errors, however, the & and CDATA remain unchanged to the output Javascript, which doesn't work. Have you tried it?

Yes, I have. You should use either & or the CDATA section, but not both. The CDATA is more readable.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
That's because your code is invalid (when included in an HTML file). You have to either escape the
&characters by substituting with&or enclose the code in aCDATAsection.
