You have run into a problem that shows ht://Dig's age. :-(
I originally wrote ht://Dig before javascript was in use, and hence it
doesn't do anything special with it.
There are two solutions I can think of:
1) Fix the HTML parser in htdig
2) Make sure all your javascript code is properly commented out using <!--
and -->
Anyone else have other solutions?
