Safari 9.1.1. Issue - "A problem repeatedly occurred"

[Patrick Burtchaell]

Earlier this month I noticed an issue with some websites I built HTML for using this plugin: when landed in Safari, the page is reloaded several times and finally, shows "A problem repeatedly occurred."

Initially, I thought it was an issue with permissions from AWS S3 or an issue with my code. However, after digging a bit further, I discovered something rather alarming: if you use <script src="/app.js"></script> the page reloads. If you use <script type="text/javascript" src="/app.js"></script>, the page loads as expected. Considering it is a part of the HTML5 standard to exclude the type attribute, I am wondering... is this actually a Safari bug or am I missing something here? Is anyone else having this issue?

Note, this also occurs when I do not use this plugin (such as when I am using local development server). However, considering the script tag is central to this plugin, I figured I'd make an issue here to see if anyone else encountered this.

Edit, some examples of websites:

You are right - this has to be fixed.
If you have time to fix it please update it here: https://github.com/ampedandwired/html-webpack-plugin/blob/master/index.js#L441

Otherwise I will do it myself in the next days.
