RE: [xsl] pass variables to next form on submit from XSL file

Remember that your stylesheet is just generating an HTML page. First work
out what HTML you want to generate, then remember that it's just data.
There's nothing magic about the fact that part of the page is Javascript
code, as far as the XSLT is concerned it's data like everything else.

So, your calling application (myfile.cgi) extracts the variables from the
HTTP request, it passes them to the stylesheet as stylesheet parameters, and
the stylesheet copies them into the generated client-side Javascript code.
