I understand CDATA sections; I'm just depressed and fairly cranky that people
still consider them a worthwhile tool that deserves regular use. Yecch. To
think at one time I thought hiding JavaScript inside comments to shield it
from old browsers was ugly.
We'll all be doing it; a lot of us will just be wondering what genius came up
with it. It would have been so much more convenient if the language designers
hadn't chosen to interpret '<' as less than and '>' as greater than, but I
suppose it was an innocent mistake on their part...
