xsl variable not resolved in javascript output again

David et al,

I tried this solution to resolve the xsl:variable in xslt code that
outputs javascript code and thought that it was working, but the
showbook and hidebook href links still do not display on the transformed
html.  Can anyone see something I'm missing here?

thanks,

Ann Marie

javascript means nothing to XSLT (any more than english) it is just
text.
To put the string value of a variable into a text node you use
<xsl:value-of select="$__Frameset_File_Name_token"/>
so:

<xsl:comment>
function showbook() {
var showframeURL = '<xsl:value-of
select="$__Frameset_File_Name_token"/>' + "?" + document.URL;
var hideframeURL = unescape(document.URL);
if (window.self == top)
{
document.write("&lt;a href='" + showframeURL + "' title='Show table of
contents and index'>&lt;font face='verdana, arial, helvetica, sans
serif'
size='1'>Show Book&lt;/font>&lt;/a>");
}
else
{
document.write("&lt;a href='" + hideframeURL + "' target='_top'
title='Hide table of contents and index'>&lt;font face='verdana, arial,
helvetica, sans serif' size='1'>Hide Book&lt;/font>&lt;/a>");
}
}
showbook();
//</xsl:comment>
