[Resolved] Javascript CRED editor . Looks like a Parser issue

I'm writing a javascript in a CRED form, and after clicking the update button, the original script is modified. Some coding lines removed and resulting in a mess code.

No error message is displayed.

I've done some investigation trying to find out what was causing it and finally I've found that a "FOR" loop with a nested "IF" statement, is not parsed correctly when updating the CRED form.

Just for debugging purposes, I've written the simplest possible javascript code, in a brand new CRED form, and I've confirmed the issue was there:

jQuery('.cred-field-post_title').click(function(event){
  
  for (var i=0; i<3; i++){
    if (i>2) {i++;}
  }

});

After updating the form, the code was modified to:

jQuery('.cred-field-post_title').click(function(event){
  
  for (var i=0; i2) {i++;}
  }

});

Note this is not my actual code, but it has the same issue.

Thanks,

Miquel

Just now realized, when watching in this post above both code versions, the original and the modified, that CRED has removed everything inside the "<" and the ">" chars, so it looks like the issue is not related to nesting for and ifs statements, but related to using these chars.
