Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. I've made very similar scripts for various problem and I tried to bundle them together in one generic and reusible script http://users.telenet.be/root-jg/f/javaScript/xsltransform.js. I didn't encouter so much difficulty though - or I'm lucky enough not to remember the pain I suffered;)

There are yet some optimizations that can improve your script; e.g. you don't need to load the XML over and over again; store it in a variable.
