no. STYLE and SCRIPT elements contain character data, not parsed character data, so comments are treated as characters, and the first "</" ends the element. if you have broken documents, you can tweak this by setting the CDATA_CONTENT_ELEMENTS parser attribute before you start parsing. </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
