Re posting as i am stil stuck.......
Is it possible to write xslt which will create one key across 30 files on a xalan server (not sure what sax streams are)?

I am performing the translations on a servlet which i cant control unfornately, it is based on a xalan server. Also when i tried to use a union operator to include all 30 files, for some reason it broke after 27 files ( i am guessing that has something to do with the server dedicating a limited amount of memory for a translation). Is it possible to write xslt which will create one key across 30 files on a xalan server (not sure what sax streams are)?

cheers
james

Depends on your environment: if you're already calling the transformation e.g. from your own Java code, shouldn't be too difficult to gather the SAX streams from multiple document into one that's fed to the Transformer. Also, if you combine the documents outside the XSLT process, you could also generate a link/@key attribute that has already been converted to lowercase to make sorting easier.
