Thanks, sounds promising but I'm having an early problem: any idea why
$files would be empty:
<xsl:variable name="dir" select="File:new($directory)"/>
<xsl:variable name="files" select="File:list($dir)" as="xs:string+"/>
There are definitely files in the directory I'm passing in....
I've got it working now...
The directory I was passing in was in the form:
file:///c:/dir/subdir
After changing that to:
c:\\dir\\subdir
it's working as expected.

cheers
