This might help http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/xsl_transformation.asp

I just noticed 2 obvious things
a) I know you can't put <p>Hello World</p> in the head section, your 
html is incorrect
b) where are you including your xsl sheet in your xml doc?

I suggest you do that example above to get an idea of how to transform a 
xml doc to an xhtml doc
