Is there a way link xsl to xml file ?

I know u can link an xml file to an xsl file by putting a stylesheet
declaration in the xml file.

Is there a way to do the opposite ?, is there a declaration I can put in
the xsl file that means I can browse to it as if I was browsing the xml
file with a stylesheet declaration ?.

any help appreciated.

When you say "browse to it" do you mean with a web browser, retrieving
via HTTP, or with a file browser (aka directory manager like My Computer) which just looks at files on a local or shared disk?

If you are using XSLT2, it might be possible to open the stylesheet and
have a document() XPath call at the top level which would open the
required document.
It's also possible to simulate this kind of action using an XML server
like Cocoon.

I'm interested to know why you want to do it this way, though.

I thnink it should be possible using XInclude [1]:

-----proxy.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="sheet.xsl" type="application/xml"?>
<xi:include xmlnsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"
href="original.xml"/>
-----proxy.xml--

But I don't think browsers support it.

I am having similar issue but i would like to know how to link the xsl file with the xml document in browser runtime.

Hey you can not link xsl to xml file, But you can transform XML into XHTML using XSLT.
Correct Style Sheet Declaration is as follows:
The root element that declares the document to be an XSL style sheet is <xsl:stylesheet> or <xsl:transform>.

The correct way to declare an XSL style sheet is:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.localhost.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
