XSLT is a language that can be run in a number of ways (just like any
other language). If you want to run it from inside a browser, you can
indeed do that, but you are stuck with XSLT 1.0 for the near foreseeable
future.
However, browser based transformations are not easy and you have to know quite a bit of what is going on under the hood which makes it far from ideal for beginners (let alone the differences between browsers: subtle, but important). If you want to learn XSLT, I recommend downloading Saxon. Use Saxon.NET if you want just a simple executable that you can run from within your favorite Integrated Development Environment. If you use Eclipse as IDE, I think it is more likely that Saxon for Java suites you better. If for one reason or the other, you are stuck with using client side transformations, you can create non-portable functions using msxml:script. Search google for examples, but remember: it will only work in IE and it is not a recommended practice (IE7 has parsing scripts in XSLT off by default).
