That matches HTML5 also.

In HTML5 the parser executes the script but it does so based on where the element was placed, which in this case would mean it executes in the context of the parent browser context also. In particular, if the script contains a document.write() call, assuming the parent document has no active parser, it'll blow away the parent document (by implying a document.open() call on the parent). -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
