javascript non w3 compliant

Hi guys,

I recently came across an issue that im sure some of you know about have dealt with and now consider a very easy thing to sort out,

basically im wishing to keep every website i do w3 compliant something i think is critically important as a designer, before now I hadnt included used any javascript, on my first go at using it, i tried to check my web site was still w3 compliant, irritatingly it wasnt, am i doing something basic wrong.

is there an issue with keeping javascript as w3 compliant, or is it just not possible ?

many thanks

 

You didn't post what exactly the problem is.

You ran a site with Javascript through the HTML validator? Or you ran the Javascript through JSLint? The w3c has rules for the DOM I guess but scripts can be anything really.

Or, you can post the url of the validator showing the errors so we know what you're talking about.
A common problem is <script language=javascript> since the language attribute is deprecated for script tags. Use type="text/javascript" for script tags... though you might also want to read this if you've run across the application/x-javascript or other things in those tags: http://annevankesteren.nl/2005/02/javascript-mime-type
