It depends on what you are trying to accomplish. 

 
You can use JAXB if you
are simply trying to map XML documents to Java objects and vice versa, JAXB
allows you to work with XML without having to know XML programming techniques.
There's a free tutorial on Overview of XML (WJO-1115) [Module 3 XML
Processing] that goes over the details of JAXB nicely here:
http://developers.sun.com/offers/#freeaccess 


If you are trying to transform
and XML file with XSLT and display the results inside a JSP file then you can
use JSP Tag Libraries XML tags. 
After you successfully install JSTL 1.1
(jstl.jar, standard.jar, Servlet 2.4 web.xml and xalan.jar) you can import the
XML file and the XSLT file with 
the <c:import tag and then  use the
<x:transform tag inside a JSP to  perform the transformation. 

There are many
other tools that work with Java and XML/XSLT but it's hard to pinpoint the
right tool without knowing what's the code is trying to accomplish.

Never used it, but...
