Hi Al,
Someone might be able to correct me, if my info is not totally accurate,
but if memory serves the following applies:
The <b> tag is deprecated in XHTML 1.0, and not allowed in strict
No it is not deprecated. It is declared in the XHTML 1.0 Strict DTD.

The <strong> tag is perfectly valid in XHTML, but in strict, it cannot
be a direct child of the body tag, nesting it in a div/span/p etc though
should be fine.
That is not the problem, the problem is the way in which it is used
within the script element.
This explanation applies to HTML:

For XHTML, you need to use a CDATA section as I explained in my previous
post. For backwards compatibility (i.e. serving XHTML as text/html) you
should use a combination of both techniques)
