Tony,

Thanks for the suggestion and I'll check it out.  What I've ended up
doing temporarily is:

<xsl:copy-of select="document('../../html/header.xml')"/>

Why isn't this recommended?  It seems to fail absolutely fine with
no side effects if header.xml doesn't exist or is not well-formed.
(i.e. it just isn't included). Is there something bad about it
I'm not seeing?

I'm assuming using <ci:include> I'll have to do something like:

<ci:include xmlns:ci="http://apache.org/cocoon/include/1.0"
src="../../html/header.xml"/>
(or maybe context://header.xml)
And include <map:transform type="cinclude"/> before or after the
initial transformation.

-James

Changing the header.xml does not invalidate the cached result,
which is sent to the browser until the main source, the style
sheet or any other component recognized by the caching mechanism
changes. There are other reasons as well.
