 * 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
