Re: importing from txt file

I seem to recall that this is a possible xslt 2.0 feature. Until then...

Simplest (if there is a fixed number of text files) is to make a small
xml wrapper for each one, that includes the text file via an entity, and
then you include the xml wrapper via document().

Alternatively if you have access to the server you fix things up so that
instead of doing document(@txt) you do
document(concat('http://localhost/xxxx',@txt)) 
and arrange that requests of that form return an XML version of the text
file using a bit of server side scripting in a language of your choice.
