"guarantee" that the id would never be removed.
With a little tweaking, Damien's idea did work for me. But, now its a
question of whether a user will much things up or not. In general, no I
would not expect them to be altering the html. But with end users... ;-)
If anyone has any other ideas, I wouldn't mind hearing them. In the
mean time, I will ping the "powers that be" to see if they'd be
satisfied with this solution. Thanks for all your suggestions and any
more to come.
