OK, I guess I was wrong to say that Xerces "completely" supports XInclude.
I'm using Saxon 6.5.3 with Xerces 2.7.0 and it handles xi:include with xpointer
fine when I use shorthand pointers to a DTD-determined ID. For example, I have
the following chapter in one of my books and Saxon-Xerces has no trouble
parsing and transforming the content. As you can see, the chapter has
xi:include elements with xpointer attributes.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE chapter PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.4//EN"
"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.4/docbookx.dtd";
[
<!ENTITY % VoceraEntities SYSTEM "file:///shared/rsrc/text/vocera.ent" >
%VoceraEntities;
]>
<chapter id="CSIPARef">
<title>&BookCSIPA;</title>
<xi:include
href="../cg/ChangingIPAddress.xml"
xpointer="ChangeIPIntroFirst"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"; />
<xi:include
href="../cg/ChangingIPAddress.xml"
xpointer="ChangeIPEnvironment"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"; />
<xi:include
href="../cg/ChangingIPAddress.xml"
xpointer="ChangeIPSteps"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"; />
</chapter>

I don't think the Xerces parser fully implements the xpointer stuff
Camille. Simple xincludes yes, but not partial includes.
