are you saying something like this does not work?

<xsl:value-of select="document('http://tiller:8080/koberg/boo.xml')/boo"/>

or

<xsl:value-of select="document('http://tiller:8080/MyServlet')/boo"/>


With the xml being:
<boo>boo</boo>

It works in my processor (saxon, I remember it working in xalan too??).  I
thought any uri will work just as long as it returns xml??

best,
-Rob
