The XSLT processor you are using is called LibXSLT.

I suspect you are only using Firefox to display the HTML output of the
transformation. Firefox does have its own XSLT transformation engine, but
you would normally invoke this not from Perl, but either (a) by opening an
XML document in Firefox, when the XML document has an <?xml-stylesheet?>
processing instruction, or (b) by running Javascript code within an HTML
page to invoke the transformation.
