RE: How to put a value-of select into a variable.

I was able to accomplish that with the following code:
 
  <xsl:template match="/Item">
      <xsl:eval>hextodec(attributes.getNamedItem( 'id' ).text)</xsl:eval>
  </xsl:template>
 
  <xsl:script>
    <![CDATA[
    function hextodec(item)
    {
      return parseInt( item, 16 );
    }
    ]]>
  </xsl:script>

when I have the following XML object
 
<Item id='0x23' />
 
I am pretty sure that <xsl:eval> is Microsoft Parser Specific, and probably
would choke any other parser. If anyone has a better method than this, let
me know - this was done using the time-honored 'guess and check' method of
programming.

Hi. 

   I was hopping someone knows how to put a   
  <xsl:value-of select="@name"/> into a variable so that I can pass 
the information to a JavaScript function defined in the XSL style sheet. 

Thanks.
