When we put javascript into the <body> of an XHTML 1.1 with good declarations as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" 
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=UTF-8" />
...
the javascript that was insert into the body don't work. Like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="cosa.js"></script>
or
<script type="text/javascript">document.write(aixo)</script>
aixo is a text saved into a .js file declared in the head of the XHTML page.
This examples don't work in Mozilla. If we put // <![CDATA[ // ]]> don't work
too. Newer versions solve this at this moment (like 1.5?).
B.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. I write the code in XHTML with javascript in the body.
2. I run the XHTML page and the explicit <script></script> parts don't work.
3. The javascript only work if the file is saved .html, and we don't put any
xhtml  declaration into head, like xmlns, <?xml...?> and <meta http-equiv...
content="application/xhtml+xml:..." />. With the correct doctype works.

Actual Results:  
The explicit javascript parts (<script></script>) don't work in the body of the
XHTML pages wellformed and with the good declarations.

Expected Results:  
The javascript explicit parts works into XHTML pages wellformed and with the
good declarations (especified in a previous textbox)

the code of the XHTML web page:

I saved the example as calaix.xml and tried to load it from disk, but got:
XML Parsing Error: mismatched tag. Expected: </body>.
Location: file:///E:/_MozBin/_Bugs/215904/calaix.xml
Line Number 135, Column 3:</div>

After removing that </div>, 
it is the second one after the line '&nbsp;T A F A N E J A&nbsp;'
the page displayed, of course not well, because some files ( .css, .js ) are
missing.
This has nothing to do with the JS console.

document.write is not supported in XHTML and there are no plans to support it
there.  Is that what causes the problems here?

XHTML 1.1 (application/xhtml+xml) - is XML.

document.write() is a part of HTML DOM:
http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-HTML/html.html#ID-26809268
and that is why it works on HTML documents.

but it is not part of XML DOM:
http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/core.html#i-Document
and that is why it doesn't work with XHTML.
