Thanks for the feedback
The error was super simple:
$xml = new DOMDocument;
$xml->loadXML($this->_payload);
$xsl = new DOMDocument;
$xsl->load($this->_filePath);
$proc = new XSLTProcessor;
$proc->importStyleSheet($xsl);
return $proc->transformToXML($xml);
I was calling load(STRING) vs loadXML(STRING), so when it attempting to
transform the XML, it (the dom doc) was empty - it didn't load the xml
string data.
Too bad it doesn't throw an error or exception if an argument is incorrect.
