language=javascript deprecation

[Inhumanoid]

I heard "<script language="javascript"></script> is deprecated into:
<script type="text/javascript">
<![CDATA[
]]></script>

How does this affect functions called from tagevents like:
<div onclick="dosomeThing();" />. It cant mean that this must be converted to <div onclick="javascript:<![CDATA[dosomeThing();]]>" /> does it ?

when it is deprecated into what? i don't know what you are talking about.

I think the CDATA is used to denote the content is not XML (based) and since the onclick attributes uses quotes, you don't need it there.

Ah, that sounds logical.
I also find it strange that the normal scripts don't work when i include the "<![CDATA[" tag.

You might have to explicitly state what version of html / xhtml the page is at the top in order to get the browser to run that.
