Type "text/javascript" is Redundant
Have a script
tag in your HTML annotated with <script type="text/javascript">
? Per the HTML5 specification, the MIME type of a script
tag, when omitted, is text/javascript
. We are encouraged to omit it.
Delete that code and go green 💚.
Per MDN:
Omitted or a JavaScript MIME type: This indicates the script is JavaScript. The HTML5 specification urges authors to omit the attribute rather than provide a redundant MIME type. In earlier browsers, this identified the scripting language of the embedded or imported (via the src attribute) code. JavaScript MIME types are listed in the specification.
