It is possible to load and manipulate the xml source and the stylesheet
-- before finally performing the transformation. 
In case MSXML3 were used, something like the following will achieve
this:

  var objXSLInclude   =
objStyle.selectSingleNode("/xsl:stylesheet/xsl:include[@href='somethingUnique']");

  objXSLInclude.setAttribute("href", someDerivedURI);

then go on applying the transformation.


Hope this helps,

Dimitre.
