var xmldoc = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.4.0");

var xslproc;

xsldoc.load("d:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\sampleXSLWithObject.xml");
xsltemp.stylesheet = xsldoc.documentElement;
xslproc = xsltemp.createProcessor();
xmldoc.loadXML("<level>Twelve</level>");
xslproc.input = xmldoc;

xslproc.addObject(xmldoc, "urn:my-object");
xslproc.transform();
alert(xslproc.output);

namespaceURI 
The namespace to use inside the style sheet to identify the object.

The following Visual Basic example passes an object to the style sheet.

Dim xsldoc As New Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument40
Dim xmldoc As New Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument40
Dim xsltemp As New Msxml2.XSLTemplate40
Dim xslproc As Msxml2.IXSLProcessor

xsldoc.Load "d:\inetpub\wwwroot\sampleXSLWithObject.xml"
Set xsltemp.stylesheet = xsldoc.documentElement
Set xslproc = xsltemp.createProcessor
xmldoc.loadXML "<level>Twelve</level>"
xslproc.input = xmldoc

xslproc.addObject xmldoc, "urn:my-object"
xslproc.Transform
MsgBox xslproc.output
File Name: d:\inetpub\wwwroot\sampleXSLWithObject.xml

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";

xmlns:myObj="urn:my-object">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

[C/C++] 
C/C++ Syntax
HRESULT addObject (IDispatch* obj, BSTR namespaceURI);
Parameters
obj [in] 
The object to pass in. 
namespaceURI [in] 
The namespace that will be used inside the style sheet to identify the
object. 
C/C++ Return Values
E_FAIL if readyState is READYSTATE_INTERACTIVE.

To view reference information for Visual Basic, C/C++, or Script only,
click the Language Filter button  in the upper-left corner of the page.

Remarks
Numbers are coerced to double, everything is coerced into a string, and
objects return an error.

The syntax get- is used to retrieve the property value exposed by the
object that was passed into the style sheet. In the preceding example,
the value for the property 'text' was retrieved as follows:

<xsl:value-of select="myObj:get-text()"/>
For example, if the object that was passed into the style sheet included
a property called 'sheepcount', to retrieve the value of that property,
you would use the syntax:

<xsl:value-of select="myObj:get-sheepcount()"/>
