I have a javascript inside the XSL style sheet. In the javascript, i have a function, getName(node). How do i call this in my xsl? I had used xsl:eval=getname(this) earlier. It worked till IE8. Hasnt worked from IE9 onwards. Can i use xsl:value-of-select? or any other tips to make it work ? Thank you in advance.

xsl:scriptis not a standard instruction. So you need to define exactly on what product you want to use it. Now, there might be alternatives like using JavaScript to do what needs to be done in JavaScript, before launching the transform (passing extra info asxsl:paramor enriching the input tree with extra attributes or elements). – Florent Georges Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 7:47 -
IE8 and below used to support a legacy/draft XSL which allowed
xsl:evalname (see msdn.microsoft./en-us/library/hh180178(v=vs.85).aspx). However, this support ended with IE9 at it was never a standard. For replacing it, see stackoverflow./questions/4551931/…. In particular, if you are only using IE, you could usemsxsl:script. See msdn.microsoft./en-us/library/ms256042.aspx. – Tim C Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 7:53 -

Alternatively, you could simply re-write your XSLT to remove the need to call javascript functions. For example, your
getNamefunction could probably be removed simply by doing<xsl:value-of select="name(current())" />. – Tim C Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 7:56

Reset to default 3This is what I do to call JScript method in XSLT 1.0:
Add the following two namespaces (xmlns) to the top of the stylesheet:
xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-:xslt"
xmlns:jscript="http://www.transvision.dk"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-:xslt"
xmlns:jscript="http://www.url."
exclude-result-prefixes="msxsl jscript">
Write the javascript code inside the tags using the jscript namespace:
<msxsl:script language="JScript" implements-prefix="jscript">
function getRegion(sVar){
...
}
</msxsl:script>
When calling the javascript method, then remember to use the jscript namespace:
<xsl:value-of select="jscript:getRegion(string($sVar))"/>
