Your request is to transfer a data file into a programming language. Please read up on XML and XSL before asking any further.

* XML is a data format;

* XSL is a data manipulation language, specifically designed for transforming XML files (the internal format of an XSL file is XML compliant -- but that's because it just has to have structure, it could have been something else).

      [..] applying the all the style.




Is your intention to import XML into InDesign? There is a good guide on Adobe's site; a quick Google shows this article <http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2004/08/04/indesign.html> for an overview.
