Hallo all,

I am sorry that I disturb you again. My XSL works fine but I am having another problem.

I have an external JavaScript which is defined as follows:

            <link href="http://dg1-2.internal.epo.org/_test/Huerol/Factiva/factiva_test.js" lang="javascript" type="text/javascript"/>

I tried to call a function from this script like

                    <td class="text">
                            <h3><a><xsl:attribute name="href">javascript:sendContentRequest(<xsl:num ber value="position()-1" format="1" />,'urn:factiva:developer:v3_0/GetArticle')</xsl:attribute>

                                <xsl:variable name="headline" select="fcs:headline/fcs:paragraph"/>
                                <xsl:variable name="cut" select="substring($headline,0,50)"/>
                                <xsl:variable name="index" select="0"/>
                                    <xsl:value-of select="$cut"/>

                            </a></h3>
                        </td>

But it doesn't call the function. Can anyone help me?

This is an HTML problem, not an XSLT problem. Try to prototype a working HTML page by hand, then use XSLT to generate it. On the other hand, if your prototype HTML page works and you can't get XSLT to generate it, then we need to know what HTML you are trying to generate.

I assume you realize that this Javascript function will only be called when the page has been built and displayed and someone clicks on the link - it won't be called at transformation time.
