I would like my HTML document, even with all the PHP scripts in, to be HTML 4.0 complient.  To do PHP code that is HTML 4.0 complient one has to do:

	<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="php">

but the "LANGUAGE" option is deprecated in the HTML 4.0 standard.  The correct option line should be:

	<SCRIPT TYPE="application/x-httpd-php">

And also, the following doesn't work:

	<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="php" TYPE="application/x-httpd-php">

So I can't even shove the TYPE attribute in to make validators happy.

We never intended PHP code to actually validate with
an HTML validator.  It would not make sense anyway, since
your PHP code can produce as much invalid HTML as it likes,
the validator would never know.
