Or
   <msxsl:script language="javascript" implements-prefix="user">
   <![CDATA[
    function DoIt(xml,xsl1) {
     var xsl2 = new ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument");
     xml.nextNode().transformNodeToObject(xsl1.nextNode(), xsl2);
     html = xml.nextNode().transformNode(xsl2);
     return html;
    }
   ]]> 
  </msxsl:script>
But I didn't test it.

Ciao Chris
