Michelle --
You'd probably be better off asking this on the Mulberry list. We are
pretty focused on Xalan development and Xalan-specific problems and
don't always have the time to delve into issues like this. You can
subscribe to the Mulberry list and search the archives and some
excellent FAQ pages (like Dave Pawson's) at
http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/index.html
The short answer to your question is that, yes, you'll have to bring in
the other XML document using the document() function. That's the only
way I know of to include other documents off the top of my head.
