You can also use the following...

XML...
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE foo [
  <!ENTITY foo-image SYSTEM "foo.jpg" NDATA JPEG>
]>
<foo>
  <bar image="foo-image"/>
</foo>

XSLT...

  <xsl:template match="/">
    ....

    <xsl:value-of select="unparsed-entity-uri(/foo/bar/@image)"/>

    ....
  </xsl:template>

This will return it in this format:

file:///C:/fileFolder/foo.jpg

Just use multiple substring functions to get just the file name without the
extension...

Best of luck,

M.
