surprisingly enough netscape/mozilla's DOM implementation doesn't go by
the name of Microsoft.XMLDOM (or ActiveX for that matter)

If you _need_ to use client side javascript to trigger the
transformation then you'll need to use the usual javascript hacks to
work out what browser you are in and do whatever is neessary.

but most of the time you don't want to do that at all, 
just stick
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="stylesheet.xsl"?>
in your xml file and both IE and netscape will find the stylesheet and
do the right thing (make sure source and stylesheet are served as
text/xml otherwise netscape and mozilla won't play)
