This makes sense to me as well. Last week a user of my framework posted to the forums asking for help. The JavaScript was not loading, and it turned out he was trying to self-close the script tags in the header. So for at least some percentage of people the intuited expectation is that the script tag can be self-closing like the link tag. -- Greg Houston User Interface Design and Frontend Development www.greghoustondesign.com
