Hi Tumer.
You are right in your bug description (alghough I cannot test), as usual.
But I donot agree with the solution you propose.
Maybe it can be overcome with using <!--TMPL_VAR Name="tata"
ESCAPE=URI--> or ESCAPE=HTML in the template rather than changing script
names or call.
Did you try such a solution ?
I think this may solve the problem.
And we could then use it as a temporary solution for javascript window
popups... As long as we are not sure to have changed all the script names.
