Details

Use this variable to set the media type (MIME type) which is used for scripts written in the JavaScript scripting language.

See RFC 4329 and MediaWiki bug #2064 for details.

In theory, this should be set to 'application/javascript' for all new wikis. Standard-compliant browsers support this setting. Internet Explorer from Microsoft does not support it in its current version (version 7).
