Im trying to do just this at the moment - my stylesheets are going to be
deployed as a zip file so I have to write a custom UriResolver to ensure
my <xsl:include>'s look in the right place.  There dont seem to be too
many examples out there - I found one at:

http://access1.sun.com/technotes/00762.html

Can anyone offer any more?  

cheers
andrew

I kind of wish I could find a better example. We all allude to the
'custom 
URIResolver' approach, but we never provide any code samples :)

Anyway I wanted to add that the concept of 'resolving' a URI in some
places
means just merging a given relative or absolute URI with an absolute
base,
producing just a new URI string. And sometimes, it is assumed to mean
that you
not only merge the two strings, but you also return a representation of
the
identified resource. The JAXP URIResolver does this, returning a Source
implementation (DOMSource, SAXSource, or StreamSource, usually).

I decided about 9 months ago that I like Python a whole lot better than
Java,
so someone else will have to post an example!
