javascript array from file
Anthony,
I'm not sure what you want to do here but let's suppose you have this
<xsl:template match="/">
	<html>
	<head>
		<script language="JavaScript">
		<![CDATA[
			//Javascript
		]]>
		</script>
	</head>
		...
	</html>
</xsl:template>

then you probably want to do something like this

<xsl:template match="/">
	<html>
	<head>
		<script language="JavaScript">
			var anArray = new Array();
			<xsl:apply-templates select="//choice" mode="javascript" />
		</script>
		<script language="JavaScript">
		<![CDATA[
			//Javascript
		]]>
		</script>
	</head>
		...
	</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="choice" mode="javascript">
	anArray[<xsl:value-of select="@id" />] = "<xsl:value-of select="." />";
</xsl:template>

but then you might not.

Ciao Chris
