Using document() in XSLT

Hello forum,

- I get the error below, when I configure my XML to User Provider, so I wonder if it's possible to use the document() function in my XSLT?

Problem is, I need to merge customer.xml with delivery.xml:
<xsl:variable name="deliveryaddresses" select="document('./delivery.xml')/deliveryaddresses"/>

Error message:

Execution of the 'document()' function was prohibited. Use the XsltSettings.EnableDocumentFunction property to enable it. An error occurred at E:\Solutions\xxx\Files\Files\Integration\Data\XSLT\Customer.xslt(5,2).

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Hi Michael,
looks like a bug in the xml provider. Can you try with this version? Also maybe it is possible to avoid using document and replace it with other functions like here.

Hello Dmitriy,

- and thanks for the suggestions, but since I don't have a test environment for the DW9.13.11 I don't dare to drop the files on the solution.

I'll try to take a close look at the Stackoverflow solution, even it looks like a reference to the XML document itself with document('').

Update, I have tried to copy my files to a DW9.14.9 solution and it gives the same error as on DW9.13.11, but I haven't used the files you have linked. Don't know if that gives any difference.

Hi Michael,
not is a new one, not yet released, so you can put the dll file in your site bin folder and try if it will work.
