A xslt processor should hopefully read and parse B.xml only when he
evalutes the first document('B.xml')-call and reuse its internal
representation when evaluating the second call.
Why? The processor has to obey the XSLT Rec.: "Two documents are treated as
the same document if they are identified by the same URI." (chapter 12.1) -
and using the same internal representation is the easiest way for that.

Hi Folks
I have an xml file called "A.xml" and a corresponding "A.xsl".
Now in the file "A.xsl" I use document() to get the contents
of another file "B.xml" and there are templates in "A.xsl" that display
the contents of "B.xml".
What do I have to do to apply the get the contents of "B.xml"
more that once. Currently I am calling document('B.xml') twice
from A.xsl. Is there anyother way to do this other than calling
it twice.
The reason I am not interested in calling document() twice, is because
every time document is called, "B.xml" is read, parsed etc. and suppose
if B.xml is a very large file, doing it twice seems a waste of resources.
Any help or direction will be gladly accepted.
Regards
