The JavaScript validator tries to validates every script tag in a JSP file, no matter the 'type' or 'language' attributes value.

SOLUTION:
The problem is in file org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.web.core.javascript.JsTranslator, line 278, because if the 'type' or 'language' attributes are not javascript it applies the default JavaScript configuration for the file (by default true), no matter this attributes exist or not.
It is solved if you change this line for:
*******************************************************************************
						if (NodeHelper.isInArray(JsDataTypes.JSVALIDDATATYPES, nh.getAttributeValue("type")) || NodeHelper.isInArray(JsDataTypes.JSVALIDDATATYPES, nh.getAttributeValue("language")) || (nh.getAttributeValue("type")==null && nh.getAttributeValue("language")==null && isGlobalJs())) { //$NON-NLS-1$ //$NON-NLS-2$
*******************************************************************************
testing that the 'type' and 'language' attributes don't exist before applying the default script configuration.

I apologize if this is not the place to write the solution but I don't know where to do it. Thanx a lot.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Write a small script in a JSP file in vbscript with the right 'type' (text/vbscript) or 'language' (vbs or vbscript) attribute. Example:

<script language="vbs">
	function confirmation(msg)
		v=msgbox(msg, vbquestion+vbyesnocancel,"Attention")
		select case v
			case 6
				v="yes"
			case 7
				v="no"
			case 2
				v="cancel"
		end select
		confirmation=v
	end function
</script>

2.Run the JavaScript validator
3.The validator "detects" a lot of problems as it is not JavaScript code
