looks like it's deleting from the begining of the line where the <script> and </script> are located.

test.file
Code:
this is <script> the first line in the file1
and the second </script> line
and the third line in the file

when I execute the script
awk '/<script>/{p=1} /<\/script>/{p=0; next}!p' test.file
I get
Code:
and the third line in the file

I am assuming Mr satheeshkumar want is

Code:
this is  
line
and the third line in the file

Thanks.
