It all depends on what you mean.  It looks like you want to output some
javascript that will be included in an html file that will later run on a
browser (or possibly a server).  Is that right?

Otherwise, if you expect to have the javascript actually execute while the
stylesheet is being processed, that won't happen.  If this is what you
really want, there have been some recent threads on it and you can search
the list archives for them.

Assuming you want the first possibility, what you wrote might work, although
it does not insert any data from your xml file into the javascript loop.
You should write the javascript you want and get it working, then compare it
to what the stylesheet is producing.

BTW, you can avoid writing "&lt;" by simply reversing the sense of the
comparison and using ">" instead.

If after this you still want help, at least you could say how you are trying
to run it and what error message you are getting.  But first get clear on
what you want to produce and what is different about the stylesheet output.
