You need to do a new transformation for each user request, that takes the
starting page number as a parameter. You access this parameter in the
stylesheet using a global variable such as <xsl:param name="startpage"
select="1"/>. Then your root template does something like

<xsl:apply-templates select="//record[number($startpage)]"/>

To see how to supply the parameter, see the Microsoft API documentation, or
the example on page 608 of Wrox XSLT Programmer's Reference.
