How to pass xsl variable as a parameter to javascript function within script tag?

Question

I have tried the following code :

<xsl:variable name="xx" select="'40967.6424503935'"/>
<script type="text/javascript">
   time({$xx});
</script>

My intention is to display text via document.write() present in time(). But it didnt give any result.

The curly braces are for 'Attribute Value Templates', but in this case you are not creating an attribute here, just a normal text node. I think you need to do something like this

<xsl:variable name="xx" select="'40967.6424503935'"/>
<script type="text/javascript">
   time(<xsl:value-of select="$xx" />);
</script>

iv got it working like this : var curDate = "<xsl:value-of select="$date"/>"; document.write('<span style="font-size:10px;font-family: arial;font-weight:bold;">['+time(curDate)+"]</span>");

There should be a small correction in the above code snippet. The parameter should be passed within single inverted comma.

<xsl:variable name="xx" select="'40967.6424503935'"/>
<script type="text/javascript">
   time('<xsl:value-of select="$xx" />');
</script>

This will work.

<input type="hidden" id="title" select="{COL[@name='title']}"/>

<script type="text/javascript">
    alert(document.getElementById('title').value);
</script>

This works for me.
