Cannot run javascript from string

[tipston244]

I have set script to a variable:
[[SCRIPT]] is set to document.getElementById("donuts").text = "test"

but when I use javascript action and set content to [[SCRIPT]] it does not run that script.

But if i type "document.getElementById("donuts").text = "test"" directly it will work.

Is this a bug

You put the text in a variable and just output it

To execute the code represented by a string, use the eval() method
