> This is adapted from a wicket users post I made (links are to the same thread

> The problem:  I have a panel with this:
>     <wicket:head>
>       <script>
>               if (someVariable < 0) {
>                       someVariable = 0;               
>               }
>       </script>
>     </wicket:head>
> This script fails to execute when the panel is loaded by ajax.  If I replace 
> the less than character "<" with equals "==", then it executes (but of 
> course, this is not what I need).
> I tested this in Firefox 4.0b10 and Chrome 8.
> After some debugging, it seems to me that this needs to be corrected in 
> wicket-ajax.js. The header contribution is sent to the browser inside of a 
> CDATA section so the "<" character arrives to javascript intact. However, in 
> parsing the script tag, the "<" seems to signal the beginning of an HTML tag 
> that then is considered malformed.
> Possible workarounds for apps:
>  - Invert the logic so a greater-than is used. In my example, this would be: 
> "if (0 > someVariable) {"
>  - Put the code into a separate JS file (the downside is it requires another 
> network hop from the browser)
>  - Embed the script in <wicket:panel> rather than <wicket:head> (the 
> disadvantage is the script will be re-sent with the panel content when the 
> panel is re-used on the same page)
