How can I get the value of schemaLocation from the xsd:element/@ref attribute in the following XML Schema sample:

...
<xsd:schema ... xmlns:xxx="http://www.yo.com/example.namespace";>
<xsd:import namespace="http://www.yo.com/example.namespace"; schemaLocation="http://www.yo.com/example.xsd"/>
...
<xsd:element ref="xxx:SomeName"/>
...


My xsl looks something like this:

...
<xsl:template match="xsd:element[@ref]">
<xsl:element name="{@ref}">
<xsl:variable name="schema" select="//xsd:import/@schemaLocation[../@namespace=???]"/>


<xsl:apply-templates select="document($schema)//element[@name=current()/@ref]"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
...


Am I on the right track? If so, what should replace the ??? in the location path? If I remove the stuff between the xsl:element tags I get the following output:

...
	<xxx:SomeName xmlns:xxx="http://www.yo.com/example.namespace"/>
...

So XSLT knows the namespace I want...I just don't know how to ask it.

Thanks.

BTW...I'm using LibXSLT and perl for the transform.
