Why are you trying to validate javascript with HTML validator? Is there any reason you have to include prototype.js inside HTML file? Prototype.js is perfectly valid javascript which should be LINKED to HTML files with script tag: <script src="/url/to/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script> If you link the prototype to the document this way, the html validator will not try to validate javascript, as it is not its job. If you paste prototype.js into html file, then it is your job, as a developer, to properly escape it's source. But I can see no reason to do that other than creation of signle-file offline html page. Prototype.js would add more than 100KB to such page which would be huge overhead if it had to be downloaded on every page load So, either use external .js file, linked throug <script src="..."> tag, or escape prototype.js by doing search&replace on & to &, < to <, and > to >. Still it is worst you can do, but this way you will have valid HTML.
