Although the XSLT 2.0 spec leaves the semantics of collection URIs implementation-defined, I think there it is reasonable to expect that processors working on a hierarchic filestore will be able to map a folder or directory to a collection URI. The details of how this works may differ slightly, so you would be well advised to parameterize the collection URI (by passing it in as a stylesheet parameter), but apart from that caveat, I think you can hope for a reasonable level of portability using this mechanism. Of course, as with document(), there may be cases where it doesn't work - for example in a browser with no access to client filestore. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
