An even more interesting development is that a draft version of XSLT now
has a formal mechanism for embedding other scripting languages. An
example is at the bottom

<xsl:script implements-prefix="date"
             language="ecmascript"
             src="DateRoutines.js"/>
<xsl:script implements-prefix="util"
             language="ecmascript">
function upper(n) {
  return n.toUpperCase();
}
function lower(n) {
 return n.toLowerCase();
}

function iff(arg1, arg2, arg3) {
  if (arg1) {
    return arg2;
  }
  else {
    return arg3;
  }
}
</xsl:script>
