Hi -
I want to use the following flash mark-up in VSD.
The mark up and demo are at http://jsfiddle.net/arunpjohny/Eccwt/.
I have entered the code in HTML Editor (copied below) and the script doesn’t run.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<HTML lang="en">
<HEAD>
<META charset="utf-8">
<META name="generator"
content="CoffeeCup HTML Editor (www.coffeecup.com)">
<META name="dcterms.created"
content="Sun, 14 Dec 2014 18:45:28 GMT">
<META name="description"
content="">
<META name="keywords"
content="">
<TITLE>hp test</TITLE>
<STYLE type="text/css">
#fds li {
display:none;}
</STYLE>
<!--[if IE]>
<script src="http://html5shim.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
<SCRIPT>
function animate() {
function fadeTo(lis, duration, opacity, callback) {
if (!lis.length) {
callback();
}
var $lis = $(lis.shift());
$lis.delay(1000).fadeTo(duration, opacity, function () {
fadeTo(lis, duration, opacity, callback);
})
}
fadeTo($('#fds li').get(), 500, 1, function () {
setTimeout(function () {
fadeTo($('#fds li').get(), 500, 0, function () {
setTimeout(animate, 5000);
})
}, 5000);
})
}
animate();
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<div> <UL id="fds">
<LI>One</LI>
<LI>Two</LI>
<LI>Three</LI>
<LI>Four</LI>
</UL></div>
</BODY>
</HTML>
I can’t imagine what I am missing.
Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Are you uploading this and testing it once uploaded or are you trying to preview this?
If preview, upload and let us know if it is working.

Both -
preview (HTML Editor and VSD)
and uploaded to my test site: http://nierikasol2.coffeecup.com/Page4.html

That is because there was an error.
[Error] ReferenceError: Can't find variable: $
animate (Page4.html, line 100)
global code (Page4.html, line 120)
Try pasting the javascript in once again.

Thanks for such a speedy reply!
Pasted again and no improvement.

Sol, have you installed and/or linked to the JQuery library?

Nope.
What should I do now and (if you are so inclined) why should I do it?
Thanks alot!

If this is a JQuery code snippet, you'll need to link to the JQuery library so the script will be able to run.
At the top-left of your JS Fiddle, I see JQ version 1.9.1 listed.
To use that, you would put:
in your code (using VSD's Edit Head option)
You can see the JS code it links to here: https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.9.1/jquery-ui.min.js
Anyway, that one link is all you need to run whatever JQuery snippets/plugins you might want to use. Update the version as needed (check the link from my last post to see version details).

That did it!
Thank you so much.
How does one know when to update a JQ version?

Usually, plugins or snippets will note what version they need so you don't try to run something from a too-outdated version or one that's still a bit experimental. I think I've still got 1.10.+ on most of my sites.
1.11 and 2.+ are also available, here's a run-down on the different versions:
