    You need to use an XSLT 2.0 processor; Microsoft does not have one so if you want to use XSLT 2.0 you need to look into third party options, like AltovaXML http://www.altova.com/altovaxml.html. Its API is documented at http://manual.altova.com/AltovaXML/altovaxmlcommunity/index.html?axcom_xslt2.htm. That is your best option for classic ASP as far as I can tell, if you move to ASP.NET then the .NET version of Saxon 9 or XmlPrime are also XSLT 2.0 processors available.
