If you are writing XHTML then &amp; is what you want, even for
javascript.
It will be parsed by an XML parser before being passed to teh script
engine, so the script engine will see &.

If you are writing HTML, then use <xsl:output  method="html" and
XSLT will write out & as & inside <script and <style elements
automatically.

If you are writing a javascript file, use  <xsl:output  method="text" and
XSLT will write out & as & inside <script and <style elements
automatically.
