Thanks for that. The first suggestion didn't work (I think the single quotes prevented the variables from being treated as such).
However the second suggestions works fine. One thing I didn't realise though is that it doesn't write out the output to the log as its created but appears to buffer it somewhere before logging all output in one go. This isn't a problem though! Just an observation
Thanks!

xslt_set_log
XSLT_SET_LOG(3) 1 XSLT_SET_LOG(3)
xslt_set_log - Set the log file to write log messages to
SYNOPSIS
void xslt_set_log (resource $xh, [mixed $log])
DESCRIPTION
This function allows you to set the file in which you want XSLT log messages to, XSLT log messages are different than error messages, in
that log messages are not actually error messages but rather messages related to the state of the XSLT processor. They are useful for
debugging XSLT, when something goes wrong.
By default logging is disabled, in order to enable logging you must first call xslt_set_log(3) with a boolean parameter which enables log-
ging, then if you want to set the log file to debug to, you must then pass it a string containing the filename.
PARAMETERS
o $
xh -The XSLT processor link identifier, created with xslt_create(3).
o $log
- This parameter is either a boolean value which toggles logging on and off, or a string containing the logfile in which log
errors too.
RETURN VALUES
No value is returned.
NOTES
Note
Please note that file:// is needed in front of the path when using Windows.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Using the XSLT Logging features
<?php
$xh = xslt_create();
xslt_set_log($xh, true);
xslt_set_log($xh, getcwd() . '/myfile.log');
$result = xslt_process($xh, 'dog.xml', 'pets.xsl');
echo $result;
xslt_free($xh);
?>
