NSXMLDocument objectByApplyingXSLT with XSL Include

Hi all,

I'm having some trouble with XSL-processing when there are stylesheets that
include other stylesheets relatively.

(the XML-files may be irrelevant but are included for completeness - code is
at the bottom).

Given the XML-file:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<famous-persons>
<persons category="medicine">
  <person>
    <firstname> Edward   </firstname>
    <name>      Jenner   </name>
  </person>
  <person>
    <firstname> Gertrude </firstname>
    <name>      Elion    </name>
  </person>
</persons>
</famous-persons>

and the XSL-file:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude";
 version="1.0">
  <xsl:template match="/">
     <html><head><title>Sorting example</title></head><body>
     <xsl:apply-templates select="famous-persons/persons">
       <xsl:sort select="@category" />
     </xsl:apply-templates>
     </body></html>
  </xsl:template>
  <xsl:include href="included.xsl" />
</xsl:stylesheet>

referencing this stylesheet in included.xsl:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
 xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude";
version="1.0">
  <xsl:template match="persons">
    <h2><xsl:value-of select="@category" /></h2>
    <ul>Irrelevant</ul>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

how can I make it that the following code fragment:

NSError *lError = nil;


 NSXMLDocument *lDocument = [ [ NSXMLDocument alloc ] initWithContentsOfURL:

                                            [ NSURL URLWithString:
@"file:///pathto/data.xml" ]

                                        options: 0

                                        error: &lError ];

 NSXMLDocument *lResult = [ lDocument objectByApplyingXSLTAtURL: [ NSURL
URLWithString: @"file:///pathto/style.xsl" ]

                                        arguments: nil

                                        error: nil ];

does not give me the error:

*I/O warning : failed to load external entity "included.xsl"*

*compilation error: element include*

*xsl:include : unable to load included.xsl*
*
*
I have been trying all sorts of options. Also loading XML documents
with NSXMLDocumentXInclude
beforehand does not seem to help.

Is there any way to make the XSL processing so that a stylesheet can include
another stylesheet in its local path?

Thanks for your help,
Kristof
