No, _authors_ should handle the problem by putting JavaScript code in an external file or by using modern DOM techniques when creating HTML elements. After an author has created the problem by putting, say, </div> inside a script element, the only correct handling in a validator is to report the markup error. The job of a validator is to report reportable markup errors - nothing more, nothing less. -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
