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.
