Then the problem is likely not with the transformation and with 
inserting the transformation result somewhere but earlier with loading 
the XML and/or the XSLT document.

looks indeed odd, it is not clear why
   xmlDocument = http.responseXML
is assigned but not used.
And then later where you call
   xmldoc.load("books.xml");
   xsldoc.load("books.xsl");
you seem to ignore that loading happens asynchronously and that you 
would need an onload handler.
