JavaScript in custom components

Hi all-

 

I need the ability to include third party JavaScript files and to write my own JavaScript functionality inline, but am not sure how to do this.  Lithium seems to be frowning upon this, turning my < > into html entitities:

 

<script>alert('hello')</script>

 

into

 

&lt;script&gt;
alert('hello');
&lt;/script&gt;

 

How can I get around this?

    That shouldn't be happening.... just to be sure - you are talking about custom components in Studio, not custom content in the Admin panel, right?

      Correct- in Studio, creating a new custom component and that's all the content that's in it. 

       

      I'm new to Lithium and am not clear if I'm looking at the basic studio or advanced studio, if that matters.
