[xsl] regarding javascript loops

["vasu deva" <vsd18@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hello
i am fixed up with a problem
..
i have a  drop down in the html part of the xsl file and i need to run a javascript function, which looks like
<script>
function filldates()
{
var optionCounter;
for (optionCounter = 0; optionCounter < months.length; optionCounter++)
{
   document.write("Option text is " + months.options[optionCounter].text)
   document.write(" and its value is ");
   document.write(months.options[optionCounter].value);
   document.write("")
}
}

</script>

but my xsl compiler throws an error saying whitespace not allowed referring to the " < " symbol that comes in the loop. i dont know how to resolve this problem .. It apparently seems to be a common problem but i am not able to solve this as i am fairly new to XSL..

please someone help me with this..
best regards,
Vasu
