Ah, there's a bug involved. '<' followed by whitespace shouldn't
really be considered the start of an element. Does the new version
at <http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/jesnellm/software/files/xmlmode.sl>
work better?

If separating the '<' or '>' from the surrounding text is for some
reason impossible, you could use a CDATA segment: 

<html>       
       
<![CDATA[              
  function changeImages() {
  if (document.images && (preloadFlag == true)) {
  for (var i=0; i < changeImages.arguments.length; i+=2) {  
  ]]>                    
                      
  <foo>                             
    bar                            
  </foo>    
</html>
