Rick Thank you for the response.
We are translating the XML TOC (c3TOC.xml) to HTML using XSLT. We are translating the "source" (c3.xml) file to HTML using the same XSLT. The "source" (c3.fm) file doesn't have any Id attributes valued so there is no anchor to go to in the "source" (c3.fm). I wonder if FrameMaker should put out the "unique id" to the XML for the "source"(c3.fm) file? Or do you think we need to manually add Id attributes in the "source" (c3.fm)? Thank you for the help.

This number will vary depending on what kind of FrameMaker object (paragraph, element, marker, etc.) that you are targeting. 1031089 is the unique id of the element that you are targeting. How are you translating your XML into HTML? The method you are using will determine how to get your TOC links working in the HTML.

Our eventual destination with the XML is to translate to HTML translating the TOC entries into <a> tags that work. We can't figure out what the objectId is and how we translate it to some kind of definition in the destination file. Do we need some kind of UniqueID on the destinations? Is there a structure equivalent to "openObjectId <$relfilename>:<$ObjectType><$ObjectId>". Are we missing something? Thank you for your time.
