With XsltTask, you can run a XSLT transformation on an XML file.
Actually, XsltTask extends CopyTask, so you can
use all the elements allowed there.
XsltTask is implemented by means of the
XsltFlter and hence relies on PHP5 XSLT support via
(libxslt) which must be available in php5. The
XsltTask is equivalent to running command line
xsltproc since that is a frontend for libxslt.

Additionally, you can use <param> tags with a
name and a expression (or
value alias) attribute. These parameters are then available
from within the xsl style sheet.
