The August  7 Tidy does the following

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
desc += "</td></table>";
</script>

with the warning

 line 7 column 16 - Warning: '<' + '/' + letter not allowed here

and writes out ie

desc += "<\/td><\/table>";

Because of course it does not detect eg the <td>, formally its correct,
but in practice of course the  <td> is written out elsewhere.

Can one suppress this behaviour?  Is it in fact correct?
