it would be something like <xsl:for-each
select="document($nsindex/filename)/root/link |
document($nsindex/filename)/root/link |
document($nsindex/filename)/root/link
you don't want the /root/link bits as you just want the document nodes.
each bit you are unioning there is teh same but I assume that's just an
artifact of the cut down example.
I forgot to say i have about 30 files which need to be searched.
if you have a file that contains the filenames
<x>
<y>a.xml</y>
<y>b.xml</y>
....
then you can just do select="document($file/x/y)" and load all thirty documents
in one go.
