Thanks - yeah I did find some mention of this in the JAXP DocumentBuilderFactory which I guess is instantiating a parser. This seems to be more of a JAXP question than an XSLT question, so I'll take it elsewhere.

There's nothing in the JAXP spec about it (the JAXP transformation spec
predates XInclude).

Saxon has configuration options allowing you to request XInclude processing
- but it only works if you're using the Xerces parser. (And possibly on
.NET, I don't recall).

I have some questions about xinclude support in xslt 2.0. I did some reading, but couldn't quickly find the answer, and I'm sure you all are the best authority on this, so...

I understand that xinclude processing may be implemented by xslt 2.0
processors: if it is, is it always on, or on by default?

Is there a standard way to enable/disable xinclude (via javax.xml.transform API calls) - I didn't see anything there, and finally:

is it generally supported by most processors?

Thanks for your help
