Maybe try replacing one or both of the dashes with its equivilant character
reference: "-". I haven't tried this, and chances are it won't work
because I don't believe XML processors are supposed to process entities in
comments. It's worth a try, though, because the grammar definitely will not
allow it in any way. <![CDATA[]]> is useless, again because it should not be
processed inside of a command, and because I don't believe many or any HTML
browsers support it. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Another option would be to simply remove the <!-- --> around your script.
You're using XHTML, and any modern browser that can read XHTML won't have a
problem without the comment. If you want to support older browsers, then
XHTML might pose other problems, such as with empty elements that are closed
with "/>". Not to mention that older browsers won't support the Javascript
anyway.
Good luck!
