Well, I tried it, but the <act>....</act> part will be always ignored, no matter 
whether the file exists or not, I am not getting any Error messages, I think cocoon 
takes {request-param:ID}.xml as a file name and not the value of {request-param:ID} 
with the extension .xml as a file name, or am I seeing it worng?

Thanks,
