This is only an example some pages with jsp doesn't work correctly with firefox
and mozilla. Mainly, this pages is used for login (bank, provides account...).
This is a big problem to definitively abandon IE, and to make mozila products
accessible to lambda users.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Nothing

Expected Results:  
;-)
The page is obviously invalid: A <DOCTYPE> followed by a <script> block,
followed by a <![CDATA[ opening tag (which is never closed!) followed by an
<html> tag containing the actual HTML.

Firefox discards the <![CDATA[ and everything after it (not even visible in
"View Source"). IE and Opera somehow cope.
To become number one Firefox must display all pages, the standard-invalids ones
also.

Um, no.

We're doing what we're supposed to do with HTML inside a CDATA: ignore it.  See
bug 201579 comment 3.

Besides, this entire thing is a duplicate.
