Hi,

I just noticed that XING uses a strange notation in their <script> tag. Instead of using several <script> tags (one tag for each URI) they are using one single <script> tag having a comma separated list of URIs in its SRC attribute.

Is this valid HTML? Or is this some hidden but accepted feature? Or is this just something their web server uses to generate one single, big, JavaScript file?

Can someone please enlighten me?

TIA,
Axel Dahmen

No, they have one URI which has commas in it.

yes

nothing hidden about it

What happens on the server is not transparent. That's a possible
scenario.
