This might be a case for using a "meta-stylesheet", i.e. a stylesheet
that transforms the stylesheet.

Subject: [xsl] Can one stylesheet handle two different xml
files with different nodes?
If I have two xml files with identical structure, but with
different node names, I know I can write one Stylesheet to
handle both files. However, is there a more efficient way
then the following? This seems pretty simple, but what if
the file is 3 or 4 megabytes?
For instance:
<ArrayOfBooks>
<Book>
<Title>FOO</Title>
</Book>
</ArrayOfBooks>
and
<ArrayOfMagazines>
<Magazine>
<Title>FOOTOO</Title>
</Magazine>
</ArrayOfMagazines>
With this Stylesheet:
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="ArrayOfBooks | ArrayOfMagazines">
<table>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</table>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Book | Magazine">
<tr>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="Title"/>
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:template>
