Is it possible to have an XML file reference data from another XML file?

I'd like the main file for a banner to look like this:

<banner>
<body>caption1</body>
<imagePath>01.jpg</imagePath>
</banner>

and a second XML file to have data like this:

caption1="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"

So the output is "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet" as the body text in my banner.

Thanks,
Evo

I guess you might want to look at this (http://xml.silmaril.ie/authors/includes/)

I saw that link and also this:

I figured external entities should do it, but can't get it to work.

Thanks.
