Applying XSL and Javascript to XMLDOMNode objects

Scenario: creating an on-line form on the fly from datastore using XML and
XSL

Exert from XML I am working with to dynamically create form is:

<RECORD>
	<INTRODUCTION>Please complete all sections of the form before
submitting</INTRODUCTION>
	<SECTIONNAME>User Details</SECTIONNAME>
	<QUESTION>Name</QUESTION>
	<ANSWERTYPE>text</ANSWERTYPE>
	<DESCRIPTION></DESCRIPTION>
	<VALIDATION>Required</VALIDATION>
</RECORD>
<RECORD>
	<INTRODUCTION>Please complete all sections of the form before
submitting</INTRODUCTION>
	<SECTIONNAME>User Details</SECTIONNAME>
	<QUESTION>Department</QUESTION>
	<ANSWERTYPE>radio</ANSWERTYPE>
	<DESCRIPTION>Information Systems</DESCRIPTION>
	<VALIDATION>Required</VALIDATION>
</RECORD>

Exert from XSL record template for this particular section is as follows:

<xsl:when match=".//ANSWERTYPE[.='text']">
	<input >
		<xsl:attribute
name="class"><xsl:eval>funcValidation(this)</xsl:eval></xsl:attribute>
		<xsl:attribute name="id"><xsl:value-of
select="."/></xsl:attribute>
		<xsl:attribute name="type"><xsl:value-of
select="."/></xsl:attribute>
	</input>
</xsl:when>

Problem: need to write a JavaScript function ( as referenced above at
funcValidation) called locally when parsing the <ANSWERTYPE> element.
Function will assign the value of <VALIDATION> to the class attribute of the
<input> tag.

However using Javascript how the heckas can I do this at run-time (using
IE4)?

Beer to the man that can.
