Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi All,
I have a jspx document which contains jsf tags including trinidad tags. I have added a javascript function in the page, which contains a for loop statement, however when I run the page I get an error

com.sun.facelets.FaceletException: Error Parsing /xAdvisorWeb/bundles/receivetask/manageinbox.jspx: Error Traced[line: 48] The content of elements must consist of well-formed character data or markup.

Please note that normal javascript code has worked in my jsf page, this problem only occurs only when I add for loop or while loop in the javascript function. Can we not add javascript loops in a jsf page? Is there something else I need to include?

This is the relevant code snippet :

<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.0"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:tr="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad"
xmlns:ch="http://www.chordiant.com/jsf"
xmlns:chrd="http://chordiant.com/jsf/chrd">

<f:view locale="#{preferLocale.locale}">

<f:verbatim escape="true">
<script>
function validateInput(){
for(int i=0;i<3;i++)
alert('Hi');
return false;
}

</script>
</f:verbatim>


<tr:commandLink styleClass="ttmBtnCmdLink" onclick="return validateInput();"
action="#{manageInbox.executeTaskForAssignedWorkItems}">
<tr:outputText value="#{msgs.execute_btn}"
styleClass="ttmBtnOutTxt" />
</tr:commandLink>

.......


Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
