I have an xhtml page loading an external javascript by using <script src="<external url>" type="text/javascript" ></script>

Is there a way to make JSF not care about the output of the script? I’d like to know this because the JSF SAXCompiler is throwing exceptions because of it:

javax.faces.view.facelets.FaceletException: Error Parsing /pages/index.xhtml: Error Traced[line: 53] The reference to entity "c" must end with the ';' delimiter.

    You’re misinterpreting the problem. You seem to think that the script is included by JSF in the webserver. This is not true. The script is individually downloaded by the webbrowser during parsing the retrieved JSF-generated HTML code.

    If you need more detailed assistance to fix the real problem, then you’d need to show line 53 of /pages/index.xhtml. The exception at least suggests that you’re using somewhere &c without escaping the ampersand. E.g.

    <p>Bla bla &c bla bla</p>

    Facelets is a XML based view technology, you need to escape XML special characters &, <, > and ".

    <p>Bla bla &amp;c bla bla</p>
