Hmm. I picked up this practice from "Javascript - The Definitive Guide" 
(5th edition, August 2006), but it turns out I misread it:

'At the time of this writing, "application/javascript" is not well 
supported, however'

But what I should have used instead is type="text/javascript", rather 
than language="javascript"

Thanks for pointing this out.
