Details
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; de-AT; rv:1.0rc2) Gecko/20020510
BuildID: 2002051006
As suggest in chapter 4.8 of http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xhtml1-20000126/ I
put in my xhtml (strict) document between my script tags a cdata section. This
is why suddenly mozilla is not able to find the write() method of the document
object. If you remove the CDATA instruction the whole script runs without a
glitch. This only happens if the document is Content-Type: text/xml. As noted in
chapter 4.10 it should be send as text/html, but another error occure then. I'll
post in an other error report if bug is not yet in database.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.simply run the testcase with content-type: text/xml
Actual Results: JavaScript Console found an error:
document.write is not a function (line 22)
Expected Results: function writeEmail() should insert a link in place

When bug 27403 is fixed, this should be checked again for content-type text/html.
Depends on: 27403

This is almost certainly a dupe of 111514. The problem with document.write has
been noted in 111514, via the 18th comment.
Frankly I'm VERY surprised the script executed at all. Mozilla typically
ignores XML comments (<!--...-->).
