Hi there
Apologies if this has been asked before (I've done a few unsuccessful searches) - is it possible to change the settings of the HTML Source editor? I'd like to have a go at inserting a flash video in the abstract submission metadata but the editor strips out the script code.
I guess the alternative would be adding the videos as supplementry files (they might be a bit 'hidden' in the abstracts anyway) but then there might be a problem of what format to choose...
Best wishes
Shimola

Hi Shimola,
There are controls to make sure that the kind of HTML that can be entered is limited, i.e. to formatting tags like <strong> and <em>, and that tags like <script> are removed. This is to prevent XSS attacks by non-priveleged users. Only Journal Managers have the freedom to enter unfiltered HTML. I wouldn't suggest allowing the <script> tag because it'll open you up to a large number of security risks -- using Supplementary Files or Galleys would probably be the best way to go.

Hi
How can the jounal manager make it possible to insert a video in the abstract?
Many of our journals have links to videos in their articles. Is that less risky?
