You did not generate HTML, you generated XML.
Add <xsl:output method="html"/> to your stylesheet, before the first template.
What do you mean 'accessed through code'? What code?
The typical usage of XSLT, when generating HTML, is to generate a complete
HTML document, not just a little fragment like this. Then you put that
document somewhere where it can be accessed by a web browser. :)
