Hi Jose,
XSL files don't matter here. Templates in them are the important units. You
can have templates matching either DRI (default) or the METS documents.
There are some ready-made templates which match the specific METS document
of an item, but that is not applicable when they're processing the DRI of,
say, a community.
As a sidenote, XSL files are in no way tied to pages, either. You could
have just one huge XSL file per theme and it could work the same.
In order to process each of the METS documents listed on a discovery page,
you can use the document() with their METS document as the argument.
Take this page as an example:
http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/DRI/discover?query=test
You can see that the items in the list can be identified by their handle:
<list id="aspect.discovery.SimpleSearch.list.10673/598:dc.type"
n="10673/598:dc.type">
So you can loop (for-each) all those elements, grab @n, extract the handle
and construct the METS document URL, which has this form:
http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/metadata/handle/10673/598/mets.xml
To grab a value from the METS document an display it, you would construct
an XPath like this (off the top of my head, not tested):
<xsl:value-of
select="document('http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/metadata/handle/10673/598/mets.xml')/mets:METS/mets:dmdSec/mets:mdWrap/mets:xmlData/dim:dim/dim:field[@element='title']"
