Embedding javascript in a post

Hi,

I’m embedding some javascript into a post but it is rendering as follows:

<div id="chartdiv">FusionCharts</div>
<p><script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
			 var myChart = new FusionCharts("http://redcresearch.ie/Charts/MSLine.swf", "FusionCharts_1", "600", "600", "1", "0");
			 myChart.setDataURL("/FusionChartsData/data.xml");
			 myChart.render("chartdiv");</p>
<p>// ]]></script></p>

You’ll notice the $gt; at the end there which is messing up my attempt to render a chart. The output is coming form the_content();

Unfortunately, I want the Editor of the site to be able to add these pieces of script regularly – creating a new .js file each time isn’t really an option.

The funny thing is, this post is rendering o.k. from content(60) in index.php ( I guess it isn’t formatting the output through that ).

Can anyone help me with this? I’m tearing out what is left of my hair (not much).

Thanks,

Nick
