Features

  • Supports capabilities for including data similar to other scripting macros.
  • Supports find and replace for adjusting resulting output.
  • Allows the user administrators to restrict the usage of Javascript in the HTML macro (based on Allow Javascript in the Configuration pagerefer to Allow JavaScript in Configuration settings). The Confluence page throws a rendering error if this parameter is not enabled, and Javascript is inserted while using the macro.
Other HTML macros
Tip

By default, header content is excluded as it could interfere with Confluence page HTML. Use head=true to include anyway, provided it does not disturb the content.
