I found the following pages have good intro tutorials:

http://www.w3schools.com/xpath/default.asp
http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/

Start with XPath and move to XSL.

The following is the best XSL reference on the net:

http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/

Maybe my memory is failing me and I got a lot of help from my colleague, but, from what I remember the tutorials was all I really needed to get started. From that, I was creating a "simple" webpage on some sophisticated XML. I got my head around the functional nature of XSLT (ie the use of recursion) based on code in the FAQ and a little help from a friend. But then, I had done Haskell at uni, so the concept was familiar to me.

Finally, if you want a book, look for Michael Kay's XSLT programmer's reference (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1861005067/103-2730203-4507857?v=glance&n=283155). We have a couple of books at work, and I find that the best.

This mailing list (and the archives of this mailing list) are also a great reference. If you want an XSLT parser to practice with, I recommend Saxon. Admittedly, aside from the Xalan parser that comes with cocoon and Saxon, I have very little to compare against, but I have had no complaints.

Most people on the mailing list would be more than happy to clarify any questions you may have.
