You need to supply a resolvable URI but it's implementation-defined how it's resolved, and it doesn't need to be resolved to a file in a file system. Java-based processors, for example, typically implement the JAXP interface which allows you to supply your own URI resolver, which can resolve a URI to any Source object recognized by the XSLT processor in question, for example a DOM or a SAX stream. It can also, of course, be a URI that requests data from a servlet or CGI script. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
