If you want the *browser* to execute this javascript, based on a
variable-value, do this:

<xsl:variable name="w" select='World' />
...
...
<script language="javascript">
var someVar = hello("<xsl:value-of select="$w"/>");
...
...
</script>
...

If you want to execute javascript *from within the XSLT* transformation
itself, you have to use XSLT-extensions for JavaScript.
Go to this site for more info:

Good luck.
