In XHTML Strict you need to have a certain style of comments. Try this
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
for(i=10;i>0;i--){
...
}
//]]>
</script>

Alternatively, keep your js in an external js file and bring it in as a resource in the head…

e.g.
<script type="text/javascript" src="sitescripts.js"></script>

When using external js, you don't need to use comments to have the validator ignore the js.
