Summary: Non-breaking space in HEAD rejected

Initial Comment:
In some web pages I see buggy HTML code like this:

      &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;                  <script type="text/javascript" src="common/js/prototype.js"></script>
      &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;                  <script src="common/js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects,builder"></script>
      &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;                  <script type="text/javascript" src="common/js/lightbox.js"></script><link rel="prev" href="apps_06_004.html">

The result is a warning (plain text not allowed in HEAD elements) plus the SCRIPT tags are ignored, i.e. removed from the output. This makes the filteres page unusable because I need those scripts.

How to fix: Make JTidy more tolerant by just ignoring nob-breaking space in HEAD sections or treating it like regular whitespace, parsing the rest of the line correctly.

Message:
Sorry, somehow a page reload created this bug twice. The older version is
the right one.
