Using Siebel Tools > Siebel Script Editors > The Siebel Script EditorsThe Siebel Script Editor is a window-based editor designed to create and maintain Siebel VB, Siebel eScript, and Browser Script programs. Scripting is used to implement functionality that cannot be achieved declaratively (that is, by changing object properties in the Siebel repository). The Server Script Editor and the Browser Script Editor are used to add scripts to Siebel objects. The Server Script Editor allows you to create and modify Siebel eScripts and Siebel VB. The Browser Script Editor allows you to write and edit Browser Scripts that run within the client. For more detailed information, including a list of scriptable events and callable methods on browser objects, see Siebel Object Interfaces Reference. NOTE: There are two versions of the eScript scripting engine available to you. The T eScript engine is the traditional, previously available engine. The ST eScript engine, made available with Oracle's Siebel Business Applications, Release 7.8, provides enhancements, including strong typing of variables and the Script Assist utility. Except for a few key differences, the ST eScript engine is backward-compatible with eScript created with the T eScript engine. In this document, the engines are referred to by name only in contexts requiring differentiation. For a list of enhancements contained in the ST eScript engine, and well as instructions on how to enable the ST eScript engine, see About the ST eScript Engine. When creating Siebel custom programs, note the following:
