This is kind of more a java question than an XSLT question. Here is a
snip-it that I use in one of my programs - it's a touch kludgey but if
you know java you can decipher the needed parts - if you can't I
recommend "Java & XML" second edition by Brett McLaughlin from O'Reilly

public long transform(java.io.InputStream xmlin, java.io.InputStream
xslin, java.io.OutputStream output, java.io.File xslURI, java.io.File
xmlURI) throws Exception {
       
	strResult = null;
	if(params == null)
		params = new Vector();
	   
       String media = null;
       
       //set the factory to the specified one       
	System.setProperty("javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory",  XSLTFactory);
              
       //get an instance and make a result object       
	tfactory = javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory.newInstance();
       
	strResult = new javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult(output);
       
	stf = (javax.xml.transform.sax.SAXTransformerFactory) tfactory;
           
       StreamSource ss = new StreamSource(xslin);
       if(xslURI != null) ss.setSystemId(xslURI);
       
       stylesheet = tfactory.newTemplates(ss);
       
       transformer = stylesheet.newTransformer();

       //set params       
	for(int i=0; i < params.size()-1; i++)
        	transformer.setParameter((String) params.elementAt(i), (String)params.elementAt(i+1));

        //do the transformation  
	StreamSource input = new StreamSource(xmlin);
        if(xmlURI != null) input.setSystemId(xmlURI);

     
        transformer.transform(input, strResult);
