For a case like your example, you need to remember that until the
tranformation is finished, the javascript won't actually be running, so the
javascript variable won't have any value.

The XSL generates a node-tree, which is (usually) serialized out to text and
sent off to have something else use it, so none of the javascript will be
interpreted as anything except the contents of a node-tree until it gets to
that something else.

Subject:  javascript variable in xsl:variable


Does anybody know if it is possible to add a javascript variable
into an xsl:variable?

example:
<xsl:template match="/">
   <script language="javascript">
      function test(strID)
      {
         <xsl:variable name="varID">
            strID
         </xsl:variable>
         alert('<xsl:value-of select="$varID"/>
      }
   </script>
</xsl:template>

Thank you much,
Ken
