would be non-conforming, since the <svg> tag is missing an
xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' attribute.
No, xmlns is optional. If it is preset, it must have the right
value, though.
BTW, what gives a *parser-level* error can be experimented with using http://html5.validator.nu/
and how things might work in a browser can be experimented with
builds from https://build.mozilla.org/tryserver-builds/2009-02-20_08:[email protected]/
(these builds have issues with nested scripts, so don't try that ;-).
There's a comment <!--XXXSVG need to define processing for </
script> to
match HTML5's </script> processing --> but I'm not sure what
processing
this means.
See:
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/tree-construction.html#parsing-main-incdata
Basically, it says how to run the script in a way that is
compatible with how browsers have to do it for HTML (in the face
of, say, an external script that document.writes another external
script that document.writes something).
I've implemented things in such a way that SVG </script> triggers
execution in exactly the same way as HTML </script>.
