Hi,
i have created a web script and i would like to know how to call this web script from the website that i have created with the WCM and integrate the web script´s response (wich is HTML) in this web site.

Thank you and regards.

Tipically using an Ajax call to get all the HTML content generated by your custom webscript, in this way (local GET WebScript example):

<script type="text/javascript">
   window.onload = function() {
      var webscriptUrl = 'http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/yourCustomWebScriptUrl';
      YAHOO.util.Connect.asyncRequest('GET', webscriptUrl,{
         success: function(o) {      
            document.getElementById('yourCustomIdElementOnThisHtmlPage').innerHTML=o.responseText;   
         }
      });
   }
</script>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This script required that you have to build your HTML with a yourCustomIdElementOnThisHtmlPage as a DIV element:

<div id="yourCustomIdElementOnThisHtmlPage">
…
YOUR CUSTOM WEBSCRIPT OUTPUT WILL BE HERE
…
</div>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Hope this helps.
