Dear Alistair,
after working intensely with XSLT again (with a break for several
years), I wholeheartedly concur.
You guys are right though, through the document function it would be
possible.
So any particular tool-set you could recommend?

Anyway through a very, very tedious process of xslt-transformations I
finally have the XML document I need.
But now I need to amend the attributes of some elements with
looked up
values from the outside, the lookup-key is a particular
attribute value
of the nodes. This I cannot do through xslt processing as the
information needed is not within the xml document.
Not the answer you were looking for, but...
Is the lookup table in another XML document? If so then you might well be able
to use the document() function, if your xslt processor supports it e.g.
<xsl:value-of
select="document($lookup-file)/ROWSET/ROW/FUND/FUND_ROW[FND_ID=$fnd-id]/ISIN_CODE"/>
That said, if you can, use Haskell to do all the transformations i.e. avoid
xslt altogether. I despise xslt.
