 -- the apache xalan (release 2) has some extension functionality which
    can do that, see http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/extensionslib.html#sql
    for a example. (works very well, streamable nodes)

 -- an very complete overview about xml vs. database products can be 
    found at http://www.rpbourret.com

 -- a few months ago I wrote a java application which parses a xml document,
    processes some query tags with sql queries therein and builds a dom doc
    from that.  Does work with apache Xerces, needs no Xalan.
    See http://www.hatop.de/sxql.html for more and free download.
