Subject: recursively including xml-files


hello,

i would like to write a template which is able to include xml-files
into another xml-file. the file which should be included is specified
by some kind of 'link'. an example:

a.xml


<hello>
	<my-include>b.xml</my-inlcude>
</hello>


b.xml

<my>friend</friend>


result:

<hello>
	<my>friend</friend>
</hello>



i have a working template for that:
 
<xsl:template match="my-include">
    <xsl:copy-of select="document(self::node())"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*|@*|comment()|processing-instruction()|text()">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates
     select="*|@*|comment()|processing-instruction()|text()"/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>


now, my problem. what if b.xml has also a <my-include>-element?
how do i recursively include this files? is this possible?
it would be very nice, if somebody could give me a hint.
thanks.

rainer
