How to add javascript to a joomla 1.5 article using TinyMCE editor?

I'm having trouble trying to get JavaScript to show up on a Joomla! article using the TinyMCE editor. I've set all the settings I should based on Google searches and it's still not showing. The JavaScript code is commented out as shown in screenshots below.

Any help is greatly appreciated. TQ!

Though many WYSIWYG editors claim <script> support, I would suggest using the "None" editor when adding the JavaScript code to your posts. I use Switch Editor to quickly change editors. After installing and activating the package:

  1. Switch to "None" editor
  2. Open the article
  3. Add the embed code
  4. Save the article
  5. Switch back to your favorite WYSIWYG editor to edit other articles

This will give you the least problems. Unfortunately, the package is only available for Joomla! 2.5+. However, there is an alternative here: http://www.joomler.net/download/81-joomla15-plugin/959-editor-switcher-for-joomla15-released.html

On a side note, you should upgrade your site away from Joomla! 1.5 ASAP!
