WordPress generates normal web pages and the `` section is produced by header.php. You should insert or link in your Javascript there. * If your theme generates XHTML Strict, your pages will probably not validate as XHTML if you insert the script as you would in classic HTML. * It will work normally in the browsers though. * [ To have your pages validate as XHTML you would have to include the script in a CDATA section ] Viewing 2 replies - 1 through 2 (of 2 total) The topic ‘Inserting a java script’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [java](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/java/) * [script](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/script/) * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 2 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [petit](https://wordpress.org/support/users/petit/) * Last activity: [20 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/inserting-a-java-script/#post-321738) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
