Re: HTML <script> tag

Seems to me since you're using the transitional DTD that Xalan should render
it the way you wrote it (MSXML 4 does, neither Saxon nor Xalan do on my
machine).

Maybe you could try a hack:

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"
src="viewSource.js">&#xA0;</script>

I can't say that it will work in all browsers, you'd have to test.
