We can have no idea about {@url} giving you "no success" - we do not know what you _did_ get, we do not know what the source xml is like, and we do not know what context your template is seeing. That's one. Second, I see no purpose for the msxsl:script element. Are you not just producing javascript? That is what it looks like. If you are producing an html page, you want to end up with a script element, so just use one - <head> <script language="javascript"> function openWindow() { window.open( 'Link Window', 'toolbar=1, menubar=1 resizable=1, dependent=0, status=0, width=400, height=300, left=25, top=25') } </script> </head> (I corrected a few typos) Using a CDATA section is OK, but you do not need it here because there is nothing that needs escaping. In your template, it seems very unusual to have an apply-templates instruction within the body of an anchor element. An anchor is supposed to contain only inline elements - it is not clear why you would need apply-templates. If it is going to return structured information, an anchor element is the wrong place for it. If it is going to return a bit of text like a label, chances are you can do it with just xsl:value-of.
