xhtml javascript WAS: html:text tags are slightly broken.

[David Graham <dg...@hotmail.com>]

On a related topic...

Currently, if you set xhtml="true" the <html:javascript> tag will enclose 
the js in a CDATA section to conform with the xhtml spec.  Unfortunately 
this makes the script unusable in browsers.

I'm thinking about adding a boolean attribute to the javascript tag called 
xhtmlStrict.  If set to true, it would use a CDATA section; if false it 
wouldn't.  The default would be false to allow maximum useability while 
still allowing you to conform to xhtml.

Thoughts on the attribute name/idea in general are welcome.

David
