Hello,

According to http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#h-4.8, it is appropriate to use the following syntax for javascript in xhtml documents:

<script type="text/javascript">
<![CDATA[
... unescaped script content ...
]]>
</script>

Konqueror's KHTML engine doesn't seem to support this. If you take the following (valid xhtml) code and name it test.xhtml (the.xhtml is important) and run it through Mozilla, you'll get an alert box when you press the button. Konq will render the page, but will not display the alert when the button is pressed. 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
 <head>
<title>
Test</title>
</head>
<body>
    <div>
        <button type="button" onclick="go()">Hello world</button>
    </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        <![CDATA[
        function go() {
            alert("hello world");
        }
        ]]>
    </script>

</body>
</html>


Thanks for looking into this!

Works fine with khtml from CVS-head.
