Re: [xsl] Netscape7.1 bug or bad code?

  I'm having a problem with the JavaScript 
  between <xsl:comment><![CDATA[ and ]]></xsl:comment>tag 
  in m


  Everything works fine in IE5, and Netscape7.02 
  but does not work in Netscape 7.1(ignore the JavaScript) .

If you put things in a comment, you can expect them to be ignored.
In HTML script is a CDATA element (which doesn't exist in XML)
so < is not special so <!-- does not start a comment, but in XHTML
script element is not special and so <!-- does start a comment and your
javascript is likely to be ignored.

Solution is easy, don't comment it out.
