This XSL should not produce any output except the Heading because the
template which is applied by the apply-templates element is not present
(not included jet). But it produces output, namely the content of
document($file)/* (the select statement in apply-templates). Why?
I'm guessing the built-in template rules are giving you your grief. If you
do not supply a template rule for a node that is pushed at your stylesheet,
then the built-in template rules are engaged and their behaviour is to
continue processing the tree in a hiearchical fashion.
Any suggestions?
Instead of pushing the document element of your remote file, only push the
node in the remote file that you want processed.
I hope this helps.
