Based on http://testsuite.org/html/elements/script/001.htm and
http://testsuite.org/html/elements/style/001.htm and the results in
Internet Explorer, Firefox and Opera it seems parsing can be made
pretty strict. The only real problem is <script> with the type=""
attribute set to the empty string. It seems all three browsers treat
that as if it was an ECMAScript/JavaScript type, while in fact it is
not. Internet Explorer handles the same situation with <style>
correctly...
Ian, perhaps you have statistics that show we don't have to worry
about <script type=""> and can make the specification to say that
browsers must ignore the content in that case?
By the way, I was planning on filing bugs on Mozilla for both the
testcases, but couldn't find out what the right component would be.
Anyone with ideas?
