Javascript closing tag is echoed twice from php

Question

<?php
     echo "<script type = 'text/javascript'></script>";
?>

output's page source shows this :

<script type = 'text/javascript'></script></script>

Why is it putting an extra closing tag ?? and who is putting it there ?? browser ? server ? who ?

Answer 1

I don't think it is a PHP error. Did you verify that there is no closing script tag after the php block?

<?php
 echo "<script type = 'text/javascript'></script>";
?>
</script>

Answer 2

也许是浏览器的DOM解析器放入了结束标记。您是否检查了上面的代码以查看是否有任何未终止的<script>标记？
