See my Calendar XSLT application, written almost five years ago. It uses the 
datetime library (datetime_lib.xsl), distributed with XSelerator. This is a 
library of XSLT 1.0 templates for working with dates and times. One can get 
it either by buying the XSelerator or by downloading its trial version.

The link to the Calendar application is:

     http://www.topxml.com/code/default.asp?p=3&id=v20020711152545

Of course, such kind of transformations are now easier with XSLT 2.0.

Cheers,
Dimitre Novatchev
