DO NOT REPLY [Bug 45096] New: Jasper compiler collapses script end tag into start tag

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45096

           Summary: Jasper compiler collapses script end tag into start tag
           Product: Tomcat 6
           Version: 6.0.16
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Jasper
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: c.beckey@comcast.net


Given: a script element within the head element within a JSP document, which
includes a src attribute and no body 
(e.g. <script type="text/javascript" src="../script/menu.js"></script>)

Jasper compiles to: a single script element with the end delimiter included
(e.g. out.write("<script src=\"../script/menu.js\"
type=\"text/javascript\"/>"); )

which results in the following in the emitted HTML
(e.g. <script src="../script/menu.js" type="text/javascript"/>)

According to the specification for HTML 4, the end element is required.
See http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/scripts.html
i.e. the output HTML should be:
<script src="../script/menu.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Firefox 3 RC1 will not display the page without the end element.

JSP Documents are intended to produce dynamic XML content. What you are seeing
is a side-effect of this.

If you set the content type to "application/xhtml+xml" then <script
src="../script/menu.js" type="text/javascript"/> will work as expected with
Firefox 3 RC1.

If you set the content type to "text/html" then you must be mindful of
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#guidelines and take any necessary steps which
includes making sure your xml document outputs <script ...></script> rather
than <script .../>
