Hi all -
I've been wrestling with a JavaScript error from the validator for a few
days for the following code. I've tried escaping the JavaScript with
backslashes and commenting but that still doesn't stop the validator from
assuming it's HTML:
<script type="text/javascript">
var wtl_loc =
document.URL.indexOf('https:')==0?'https://a248.e.akamai.net/v/248/2120/1d/download.akamai.com/crs/lgsitewise.js':'http://crs.akamai.com/crs/lgsitewise.js';
document.write("<SCR" + "IPT Language = 'JavaScript' SRC = '"
+ wtl_loc + "'></SCR" + "IPT>");
</script>
Validator sez:
Line 23, column 32: an attribute specification must start with a name or
name token
document.write("<SCR" + "IPT SRC = '" + wtl_
Check for stray quotes or incomplete attribute definitions.
Line 23, column 32: element "SCR" undefined
document.write("<SCR" + "IPT Language = 'JavaScript' SRC = '" + wtl_
You have used the element named above in your document, but the document
type you are using does not define an element of that name. This error is
often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document
that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Frameset" document type to get the
"<frameset>" element), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as
"<spacer>" or "<marquee>" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve
the desired effect instead).
Line 23, column 94: delimiter """ invalid: only S separators and TAGC
allowed here
...Script' SRC = '" + wtl_loc + "'></SCR" + "IPT>");
Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I'm wondering if I've just been
staring at the code for too long.
