Your'e transformation does not need to take place on the client. It is
rather large for a client-side transform (the XSL and the source). The
transform makes Firefox freeze for a bit and takes a long time to load. 

And google won't index it (?)

I see it there too.

It could have something to do with the size of the transformation. The
XSL weighs in at 5000+ lines and 190K, and the source is largish. Have
you tried with a small/simple sample to see if styling works there?
