XSLT in a UIWebView using iOS SDK 4.2

Question

Is it possible to use XSLT in a UIWebView using iOS SDK 4.2? Alternatively, is it possible to use XSLT in iOS SDK 4.2 outside of a UIWebView? I have seen similar questions to this, but they seem to be dated and refer to pre-4.0 iOS SDKs.

If it is possible, a link to a simple iOS XSLT example would be great too.

TIA.

The answer is yes. Here's an example:

NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath];
NSURL *baseURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path];
NSString *xml = @"<?xml version=\"1.0\"?><?xml-stylesheet type=\"text/xsl\" href=\"greeting.xsl\"?><greeting>Hello, World!</greeting>";
[self.webView loadData:[xml dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding] MIMEType:@"text/xml" textEncodingName:@"utf-8" baseURL:baseURL];

I was having problems with this because I was trying to load XML using the UIWebView's

- (void)loadHTMLString:(NSString *)string baseURL:(NSURL *)baseURL

method.
