XSLT and JAVA

Hi All,

I am trying to pass some JAVA code in my XSLT and I am coming across a problem. The JAVA code requires a tag </SCRIPT> but the processer says it needs the start tag. IN HTML, it doesnt. How do I pass this along with out an error?

Code:

<style type="text/css">
                    <xsl:comment>.header {  }</xsl:comment>
                </style>
</SCRIPT>
<style type="text/css"><!--
#containerul, #containerul ul{
  text-align:left;
  margin:0; /* Removes browser default margins applied to the lists. */
  padding:0; /* Removes browser default padding applied to the lists. */
}

#containerul li{
  margin:0 0 0 30px; /* A left margin to indent the list items and give the menu a sense of structure. */
  padding:0; /* Removes browser default padding applied to the list items. */
  list-style-type:none; /* Removes the bullet point that usually goes next to each item in a list. */
}

#containerul .symbols{ /* Various styles to position the symbols next to the items in the menu. */
  float:left;
  width:12px;
  height:1em;
  background-position:0 50%;
  background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
--></style>

Try escaping the markup as <script>

Michael, I tried that earlier to "fool" the processor, but it just printed "<script>".

I found the problem. I didnt need the </script> in the HTML. I copied the code from a JAVA site. It worked in HTML, so I thought I needed it. I deleted it and everything went threw.

I was able to generate a TOC using the generate-id() function along with an expandable tree menu with XSLT and JAVA.

Thanks again for the help
