Not only am I new to DNN but I'm also very new to JQuery.  I am adding content for a client to one of the pages on his site and I'm using a JQuery plugin for an animation that is part of the content.  Since I'm new to JQuery I started by getting the animation working inside a simple html page.  It works perfectly there.  When I went to do the same thing on the DNN site I realized that if I put the style and script tags required for the animation in the skin ascx file then it would be used on all of the pages on the site - where I only need it on the home page of the site.  I tried putting the style and script tag content in the WYSIWYG content for the page but every time I save the html the script tag content is removed.  This didn't really surprise me since I know that it is preferred that the script tags be in the head section of the page.  However, I'm not sure what the best approach should be.  Should I make a unique skin ascx file just for the home page and then add my JQuery style and script info in the ascx file?  Although that might work, it does bring up the question of what to do if you have multiple instances on the same page of JQuery code.  It seems rather user unfriendly to have to create a unique skin for any page that uses JQuery.  What is the best approach for handling JQueyr style and script requirements for content on a DNN site?

Thank you in advance for any guidance.

Put the jquery call in your .ascx skin file

Then in pages where you want to use jquery apply this skin

If you want to use script you need to put the editor in normal text mode with selection html , if you do that then the code wont be removed, another option is to edit the config files to make sure jst ags dont get filtered out
