Sorry to bear bad news, but this won't work.
The XSL processor will keep the script element and text in the variable
verbatim. The script will only be executed when you view the page in
your web browser (assuming that's your method of delivery), by which
time the page has long left the xsl processor.
If you need the URL in the XSL, pass it in as a parameter.
