HTML and CSS validators don't like '<' within Javascript code?

Hi,
I really appreciate being able to use the validators you kindly supply. Thank you.

The HTML and CSS validators don't seem to properly ignore <script>
sections, because when I test a page with Javascript containing a less-than
symbole, e.g.

        if (num < 3)

it complains that the '<' is for starting a tag.

An example page that generates the error is:

Thanks,
        Jeffrey
