Re: XSLT eval()

["James" <jgb@xxxxxxxxxx>]

xsl:eval and xsl:script where once part of the XSL draft
(and, as such, turned up in Microsoft's implementaion.)

However, they were dropped; exact reasons are unknown to
me, though perhaps someone else on this list could explain why.

Largely, though, I beleive that pretty much anything you would
want eval and script for could be done using proper xslt
and DOM scripting.
