Within IPL you have to use the following:

<script language="JavaScript">
var pFrame = top.opener.parent.getScriptFrame();
print "pFrame.IWDatacapture.getItem(|itemname|).setValue(|valuetoset|);
</script>

Where, |itemname| would be the Xpath for the item in which value is to be updated and |valuetoset| would be the XML generated by your IPL.

What's the

print "

for at the beginning of that line?
I believe the entire script section would need to be "printed" to STDOUT (assuming this is a CGI script used as part of a CallServer or cgi-callout.
