For the reasons described at the aforementioned "this FAQ
entry". <script> contains CDATA in HTML 4 where (due to a quirk of
SGML) end tags are recognised but start tags are not.
The FAQ entry also tells you how to fix it. (<\/a>).
(I read the mailing list, please address responses there and do not CC
