First, to the poster, please take a look at http://geekswithblogs.net/workdog/archive/2007/02/08/105858.aspx and see if this helps.
This thread actually brings up a point I thought I understood, but I am no longer sure. If I create an XSLT stylesheet to transfrom XML and want to use Xalan-C, would another developer coding in Java using Xalan-J have to create a different stylesheet even if we are both acting on the same data and want the same transformed output? I thought that XSLT was language independent.

You will need to format the date, then pass it into the stylesheet as a parameter. Or, you can write an extension function that you can call in your stylesheet. The ICU (International Components for Unicode) has support for date formatting which is like the Java functionality you're using in Xalan-J. Dave
