I am trying to have a document reference that is variable.
Example xml documents.

<document>
<body>
<image>
<uri>../images/test.xml</uri>
</image>
<text>Blah Blah</text>
</body>
</document>

the text.xml would look like this

<image>
<uri>../images/test.jpg</uri>
<height>342</height>
<width>342</width>
</image>

I would need the style sheet for the first document to read the uri node set and pass the contents on to the document function. I am not sure on how to do this.

Without having variable multiple documents I seem stuck on how to process including multimedia sources and their descriptive data.

My idea is each document contains the text and references to other media. The other media will have a reference xml document that contains meta data on its attributes and copyright and such. So if you update a picture size you update the picture and its xml but not every reference to it in you xml documents outside of that.
