They are 2 diffrent ways. though theie distination are same.

Using JavaScript, The Client must support JavaScript. Using XSLT, the Client
must support XSLT.

JavaScript is a programLanguage, It can do much more things. XSLT is live
for XML transforming.

XSLT is much easy to use than JavaScript to trnsform XML.
