Umm, yeah. That's because the javascript tag doesn't exist. The issue with closing tags this way is because that's how HTML works - closing a tag by using /> is not proper HTML, it is XHTML. Marking this bug INVALID, as it's not a bug.

OK so try this with XHTML page. It doesn't work too. It is a bug because page is not displaying at all ! tell me which browser doesn't display the page when the HTML tag is incorrect ?! Cheers, M.

What web page is this problem on? You can also create a test case, http://developer.mozilla.org/en/Reducing_testcases.
Hello Guys, I believe that Gijs Kruitbosch is right. This isn't a bug really, because I wanted to use xhtml tag structure (inline closing <script.../>) in the page with HTML structure. I agree that this isn't keeping the specification, and it isn't a valid tag on HTML pages. However it works on Firefox-2.x. Thanks you can close this issue.
