Re: regarding javascript loops

To be accurate, you are not trying to "run" the javascript function, but
trying to ***write its characters*** to the output file.  Is this right?

You cannot use the "<" symbol as is because that is not allowed in xml.
It's easy to handle, though.  Either

1) use the "&lt;" entity instead of "<"
or
2) reverse the direction of the test so it reads

 months.length > optionCounter

If you do 1), don't worry, it will output the way you want.

i have a  drop down in the html part of the xsl file and i need to run a
javascript function, which looks like
<script>
function filldates()
{
var optionCounter;
for (optionCounter = 0; optionCounter < months.length; optionCounter++)
{
   document.write("Option text is " + months.options[optionCounter].text)
   document.write(" and its value is ");
   document.write(months.options[optionCounter].value);
   document.write("")
}
}

</script>

but my xsl compiler throws an error saying whitespace not allowed referring
to the " < " symbol that comes in the loop. i dont know how to resolve this
problem .. It apparently seems to be a common problem but i am not able to
solve this as i am fairly new to XSL..
