is there a difference in performance between the following?
1) using CDATA
<msxsl:script language="VBScript" implements-prefix="user">
<![CDATA[
'---------------------------------------------------------------------
'converts current date to YYYYMMDD format
function current_date()
current_date = cstr(date())
end function
]]>
</msxsl:script>
2) no CDATA
<msxsl:script language="VBScript" implements-prefix="user">
'---------------------------------------------------------------------
'converts current date to YYYYMMDD format
function current_date()
current_date = cstr(date())
end function
</msxsl:script>
obviously, using the CDATA helps when you are looking at your XSL file from
within IE, but if it is going to cause a performance slowdown, it wouldn't
be worth it.
