data attribute in JS

[grimmus]

Hi,

I am trying to include some JavaScript in a global content block. It's all working fine except for a data-attribute that i have on an element. As soon as i save the code the data attr is removed.

Everything is wrapped in a literal tag.

Any tips on how to get this working is appreciated.

If you're using the TinyMCE wysiwyg editor then that will strip out any tags it doesn't know about.

Probably your best bet is to disable the wysiwyg editor on that global content block. If you're adding javascript to it then it's probably not something that users who don't know what they're doing should have access to anyway.
