Re: Using doc( ) to get a second input file

I've tried to solve the problem two different ways, but neither works. First I tried adding a xpath specification to the doc function so that the returned XML would start at the element I was interested in, like so:

<xsl:variable name="myActionSet"

select="doc('file://sashq/root/pub/pubs_xiswork/sascrs/prod/v16/eclipse/workspace/castest/xml/actions.xml')//actionSet[@id='abc']"/>

but that caused the function to fail and not fetch the second file.

I also tried a fragment specification "#actionSet" but this also failed.

I then tried to kick the second input files root element out of my root template with a test for ancestor-or-self::casActions and a test for descendant-or-self::casActions. But neither of these tests worked on the fetched second file.

Any help would be appreciated in solving this problem.
