Bug #63439 [Opn->Wfx]: language attribute on script tags deprecated

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63439&edit=1 ID: 63439 Updated by: aharvey@php.net Reported by: alastair at propcom dot co dot uk Summary: language attribute on script tags deprecated -Status: Open +Status: Wont fix Type: Bug Package: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: all PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Since it's handled on the server side and the user agent never sees it, compliance with HTML is rather pointless. If anything, I think we'd be more likely to look at deprecating the <script> form altogether, rather than adding new variations. Closing Won't Fix.
