<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
alert('foo');
</script>
As you can see, there's no need of this kind of attribute anymore.
In HTML5, the script element no longer needs the type attribute. This attribute is actually useless, because a browser already knows how to handle the content of such element. So you can write something like this:
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
alert('foo');
</script>
As you can see, there's no need of this kind of attribute anymore.
