For better or for worse, ZPT's won't process anything inside a script tag.

I'd generate it using a python script:

js_template = '''
//whatever js you want ot be staticly generated
%s
'''

array = ','.join(container.reqZSQL3())

return js_template % array

...and then use them in your zpt as follows:
<script tal:content="here/my_js_generator"/>

cheers,

Chris
