There are in fact expressions like
if (y<x)
in the function. Not ones with no space between the if and the ( though.
But why would it balance in one file and not in another?
I dont think a use of <![CDATA[*]]> will work in this case because this is
server-side JavaScript and that will just mess up the compiler.
Are there options in BBEdit to tell it to not consider HTML tags when balancing
parens and brackets?
Thanks,
doug
