If you actually have duplicate IDs, meaning the same number as the ObjectID of two paragraphs (in the MIF <Unique 123456> tag), then no, Mif2Go will not correct this problem. But it is very uncommon in unstructured Frame. (Structured is another story.) Frame assigns a new ID whenever you copy/paste or create a new para. However, if you cut/paste (within the same file), it retains the previous ID, correctly so. So if you do run into this unlikely problem, the fix is to select one of the paras with the duplicate ID, copy (not cut) it, delete it, then paste it back. It will get a new ID and all will be well. However, that's not the problem in the original post, where you had: <A href="install.xml#id(Installation)" ... Here the problem is purely with Frame's XML output, which seems to be using the paratext as the ID, a Really Bad Idea. Mif2Go uses the <Unique> ObjectID instead, which is safer... >Thanks for the suggestion Rick.

It's a good idea to define at least the common entities in your XML DTD; else this will bite you elsewhere too. >I guess I shall have to email their technical support and see if they can >help.

We add the because some browsers will not render the borders, margins, and padding of a completely empty cell correctly. If you are sure this is not needed for your use, you can remove it with: [Table] EmptyTbCellContent= The empty value disables the , or you can put in any other content you want.
