[html] "Cannot redeclare block-scoped variable" in script type module #169117
Description
Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes
System:
- VS Code Version: Version: 1.74.0
- OS Version: macOS 13.0.1
Steps to Reproduce:
- Create a new HTML file
- Add two
<script type="module">and declare a variable with the same name in both (see example code below). - Observe the red squiggly line underneath the variable names saying Cannot redeclare block-scoped variable.
When a script tag has the type attribute set to "module", the source text should be treated as an ES module with it's own scope, not the global scope.
