is the question will xsl include the majority of
functionality in javaScript?
because you can include javaScript currently in
xsl. If it is not well formed js escape it in a cdata
section and put all the js u want .. you can even import 
it...

<script>
<![CDATA[ 
var sub_on = new Image();
sub_on.src = "images/sub_on.gif";
var sub_off = new Image();
sub_off.src = "images/sub_off.gif";
]]>
</script>

did I miss the point?

I'm curious about this too.  When using XSLT to output HTML, couldn't
<SCRIPT>
tags be used in an XSL file to include, say, JavaScript files in the
resultant
HTML file?
