can you do this with document('http://...') ?

[Simon Woodside]

This XSLT displays "breadcrumbs" based on simple dir.xml files that you  
stick in your site directories (put one in each directory up the tree  
that you want to appear in the breadcrumbs, with the format <dir  
id="root"><title>Home</title><path>/</path></dir>, the root dir.xml has  
to have id root, the others should not).

Have I finally found a use for axkit: URIs that can't be replicated any  
other way? (because they know your current path)
