Marc,

 > <file>instance.xml</file>
 > <directory>c:/temp</directory>
 > </config>
 > </p:input>
 > <p:input name="data" href="#instance(WHAT TO PUT HERE?)"/>
 > </p:processor>

You can use the xpointer notation here:

<p:input name="data" href="#instance#xpointer(/form/tag1)"/>

This will create a document with root element <tag1>.

 > xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema
 > <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema>"
 > xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-functions"
 > xmlns:xdt="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-datatypes"

 > <xsl:copy-of select="//tag2" />
 > </xsl:template>
 > </xsl:stylesheet>

It should work too. What happens if you put a debug attribute on these
lines:

   <p:input name="data" href="#instance"/>
   <p:input name="data" href="#transformation-result"/>

i.e.:

  <p:input name="data" href="#instance" debug="before"/>
  <p:input name="data" href="#transformation-result" debug="after/>

What are the resulting documents?

This should be possible with the oxf:directory-scanner processor!
