[xsl] XML element to Javascript var via XSL

["Nik Coughlin" <nrkn@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I want to be able to load the contents of an XML element into a
Javascript variable via XSL.  It works fine if the <content> element
in the XML file looks like this:

<content><![CDATA[<table><tr><td>Table
Content</td></tr></table>]]></content>

and the XSL is as follows:

<xsl:variable name="content" select="content" />

With the Javascript being:

NewTable.innerHTML='{$content}';

BUT 

For readability and ease of use etc. I want to be able to use the
<content> element as follows:

<content>
  <![CDATA[
    <table>
      <tr>
        <td>Table Content</td>
      </tr>
    </table>
  ]]>
</content>

If I do this, the Javascript returns an Unterminated String Constant
error, which is fair enough, as I suppose I am essentially trying to
do this:

NewTable.innerHTML='    <table>
      <tr>
        <td>Table Content</td>
      </tr>
    </table>';

I tried using <xsl:strip-space elements="content" />, but to no avail
(I guess I don't understand how it works).  This is driving  me
crazy, does anyone know a way to do this?
