<xsl:include> is for including other stylesheets and so the templates in the
current one. If you really only want to copy the content of the other
xml-files to the output-tree, try <xsl:copy-of
select="document('filename')"/>. A way with more influence is to store the
document in a variable and use it as normal node-sets:

<xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:variable name="file" select="document('filename')"/>
    <xsl:for-each select="$file/rootelement/element">
        <!-- and so on -->
    </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

Hope this helps,

Joerg
