True, actually you could write those particular examples in xsl, but I
take your point.

As it should. xsl:script was always a microsoft extension and shouldn't
have been in the xsl namespace (even the old namespace used by IE)
MSXML3 does it right and provides an extension namespace for extension 
functions. 

By convention people often bind the extension namespace to the prefix
msxsl, that's why I said you could use msxsl:script to get the
functionality you were looking for.

there are examples in the SDK for MSXML3.
