This ultimately depends on the API of the XSLT processor that you are using;
check the docs for it. If it supports JAXP (it should), then you should be
able to pass stylesheet parameters using the setParameter method on the
Transformer object.

For example:

<xsl:param name="p1"/>
<xsl:param name="p2" select="'default value if none passed in'"/>

at the top level (after xsl:stylesheet, usually before the first xsl:template)

Thereafter in any template you can reference $p1 and $p2.
