file path in xsl document

Well that's the correct syntax. Perhaps you failed to define the $path
variable to contain the right string. A common mistake is to go
<xsl:variable name="path" select="a/b/c"/>
instead of
<xsl:variable name="path" select="'a/b/c'"/>
the second defines path to be string a/b/c suitable for use as the URI
in the document() function. The first defines path to be the mode set
selected by the XPath a/b/c (which may well be empty).
