On the page: http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-html40-970708/interact/scripts.html#adef-type-SCRIPT It states: "... document authors must explicitly tell user agents the language of each script. This may be done either through a default declaration or a local declaration." Even with the default meta declaration, the validator still requires the "type" attribute, so either the validator is incorrect or the above statement is incorrect. I would assume the validator is incorrect, because if the "type" attribute is required for every SCRIPT tag, then a default meta "Content-Script-Type" declaration is pointless. Additionally, the page says "It is also possible to specify the scripting language in each SCRIPT element via the type attribute". If the type attribute is required, it should not say "it is also possible". Ken F. Innes IV (webmaster@absoluteanime.com) Webmaster - http://AbsoluteAnime.com/ Programmer - http://WorkingDesigns.com/
