Description From Bart van den Eijnden 2004-11-24 08:02:14

Most script tags in Chameleon use

<script type="javascript" .... >

better (and valid HTML) would be:

<script type="text/javascript" .... >

What I meant is, that the current implementation does not use the required type
attribute for script tags.

Instead it uses language="javscript" most of the times.

I've committed a bunch of fixes related to this, I did a big search to find the
script tags and had to manually update most of them ... not sure if I got them
all, will sync cvs in the morning and search again to see if I missed any.

Bart, hopefully I understood correctly.  I've committed changes to every file I
could find that had a script tag.  The new tags *should* look like:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

hopefully this is what you intended.  Can you please test with the latest cvs
version and let me know?  Also, if you find problems, can you just go ahead and
commit the changes as you find the problems ...

Hi Paul,

this is correct. Language is deprecated though, but I don't see any problem with
leaving it in there.
