With respect, Wes, that would be a very silly idea, as such. If the author
wanted to include Javascript (or any other client-side script) in the web
page, they would have a torrid time if the delimiters for the script were
the same as the delimiters for the Ada code!
Better that the Ada code delimiters are completely different to those of any
client-side scripting language. However, I'm very happy to accept ideas for
an alternative syntax to what I suggested, provided it does not clash with
client-side scripting syntax (or any kind of syntax that could be required
in an HTML page). I forgot to mention an escaping mechanism with my
suggestion, but some escaping mechanism would be necessary.
