To link XSL to XML.

Answer 1

You can create a local XML file that includes the XML content of the remote XML file through an entity reference.

The example below will give you the content of the remote XML file inside of a wrapper document element.

Then you can include a stylesheet processing instruction on your local XML file.

However, since the local file has a wrapper document element, you might need to point to a "wrapper XSLT" that uses xsl:import to import the original XSL.xsl and apply-templates starting with the content inside the wrapper element.
