I was expecting to get a result like.. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?> <first-xml> <univ1>Kansas State University</univ1> <univ2>Florida Atlantic University</univ2> <univ3> Mississipi State University</univ3> <univ4>Ohio State University</univ4> <second-xml> <univ1>Ohio State University</univ1> <univ2>Wisconsin state University</univ2> <univ3> Rensellar polytechnic Institute </univ3> <univ4> Mississipi State University</univ4> </second-xml> </first-xml>
but what prints out is.. <first-xml> <univ1>Kansas State University</univ1> <univ2>Florida Atlantic University</univ2> <univ3> Mississipi State University</univ3> <univ4>Ohio State University</univ4> <second-xml></second-xml> </first-xml>

your terminology does not fit well with that of XSLT so I am having to guess what you mean. for-each iterates over the set of nodes supplied, these can come from any number of files: you just have to select the appropriate nodes.
Perhaps you would be better to apply-templates rather than do a for->each if you want to traverse into the file structure.
But otherwise, as I think i said before, something like
<xsl:for-each select="univ-xml">
>stuff from <xsl:value-of select="."/> ><xsl:for-each select="document(.)/university-records/*"> > iterate over all the children of university-records in this file...

oh ic what u mean.. then in such a case , how do we run a for loop for an imported xml file???
for.example
if i get the locations from running a for-each to mainxml.xml
and get hold of the first univ-xml's name..
<xsl:for-each select="document(/univ-xml-list/univ-xml)">
<xsl:variable name = "external-xml" select ="document(.)"/>
</xsl:for-each>
Now is there a way to run a for-each for this external xml file??
so that i get hold of EACH ELEMENT in the External XML?? and get hold of their properties like name() position() etc??

<xsl:for-each select="document(/univ-xml-list/univ-xml[1])"> <xsl:variable name = "element-name" select="name(.)"/> <xsl:element name="$element-name">
</xsl:element> </xsl:for-each> this will create all the elements that are in the first elements..
No it won't as I said before that for-each is iterating over a single node so it will only create one element, with name equal to teh name of teh node selected in the xsl:for-each select=" however that node is a document node, so has name "" so the xsl:eleemnt should generate an error thatyou are trying to generate an element with an invalid name, "".
