[xsl] Passing XML Tree to a java method as String.

Hi,

I have a SOAP Message in the XSL template and need to pass everything
inside the Body element to a java method that takes a String.

When I do the following:
<xsl:template match="/">
	<xsl:variable name="myxml">
		<xsl:copy-of select="env:Envelope/env:Body/*" />
	</xsl:variable>

	<xsl:value-of select="JavaClassRef:javaMethod($myxml)" />
</xsl:template>

In the javaMethod I get only the values inside the elements passed.
How can I pass everything including the elements that are inside the
Body element as String (the entire XML structure as String)? Do I need
to convert the XML to String?
Or is it more a question of deserializing the XML ? How do I do this,
are there any libraries that provide this?

Any help much appreciated.
Omar
