Dear Friends,
Thank you for your immediate response.
I should have explained issue in more detail.
The (spaces in filename) issue arise when I pass parameters to xslt using libxslt's xsltApplyStylesheet function. And, the issue is, the document function then fails to load this file.
If I directly hardcode the file path in XSLT then it works fine.
for e.g.
<xsl:variable name="path" select="'C:/file with space in name.xml'" />
<xsl:copy-of select="document($path)"/> , note, no %20 in file name. I am using MS-Visual studio XSLT debugger to degub this XSLT.
Now, if I pass same path 'C:/file with space in name.xml' from libxslt's xsltApplyStylesheet function then it doesn't work.
But, now I have changed my code to replace all spaces in file name by %20, before passing it to xsltApplyStylesheet function. And it works fine now. The issue is fixed. Thanks to Chuck Jungmann :) . You gave me the direction.
Thanks all.

Because the argument of the document function is a URI, not a filename.
