Well which XSLT processor do you use? Does its documentation say it supports writing extension function using VB or VBScript with the ms:script element in the namespace urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt? That is a non standard feature introduced by Microsoft's MSXML, further supported with the .NET versions of Microsoft's XSLT processors (XslCompiledTransform, XslTransform) and I think these days supported by some XSLT 2.0 processors like AltovaXML and XmlPrime. But other XSLT 2.0 processors like Saxon do not support that. And even with MSXML and XslCompiledTransform there are differences — Martin Honnen

sorry for the noob answer but how i know if urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt support the vbscript function? — FrankTan
– FrankTan, Commented Jan 22, 2013 at 14:31
Are you using this XSLT in a web browser? If so, which one? I think it's likely to only work in IE. If not, could you show us the code you're using to execute the XSLT? — JLRishe
– JLRishe, Commented Jan 22, 2013 at 14:40
Which software do you use to run the XSLT, which software is that that says "Error (0x80004005): Namespace 'extra-functions' does not contain any functions.". As for support of VBScript to implement extension functions, MSXML 3,4,5 and 6 do support that. Default security settings in MSXML 6 might however disallow that. XslCompiledTransform support VB.NET, not VBScript. For AltovaXML and XmlPrime I would need to check the documentation. — Martin Honnen
– Martin Honnen, Commented Jan 22, 2013 at 14:42
The provided code doesn't have any extension functions defined in the namespace (i:) "urn:ls-i18n-formatter". Please, edit the question and provide these. Also, it seems that your XSLT processor isn't MSXML -- and this is likely the reason VBScript extension functions aren't recognized by it. — Dimitre Novatchev

You are using the function in this stylesheet

                     <xsl:value-of select="extra:VBCustomScript(string(@UIDMETERHISTORY))"/>

But the function is not declared in this stylesheet it is declared in the stylesheet that you are generating

This:

<msxsl:script xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
language="VBScript" implements-prefix="extra">
    function VBCustomScript(str)
        VBCustomScript= "test"
    end function 
</msxsl:script>

Is inside the template matching

 <xsl:template match="xsd:element">
