RE: About fo:basic-link

[Smethurst, Michael]

if you're matching the same nodes in different modes

use 

fo:basic-link internal-destination={generate-id(.)}link/fo:basic-link
on the link

and

fo:block id={generate-id(.)}whatever/fo:block on the destination

RE: internal linking between separate page-sequences

[Smethurst, Michael]

for the purposes of this stripped down file i'm not using generate-id() at
all.

[i was using it to generate ids based on nodes in the source xml tree but i
stripped it out (and replaced it with the WORD generated_id to signify
that i would in practice generate the id in the xslt) cos i wanted the xsl
file to work with ANY xml document.]

My problem is not with using generate-id(). If you look at the source file i
posted, generated_id is seen twice: once in the first page-sequence as the
value of the attribute 'internal-destination', and once in the second page
sequence as the value of the attribute 'id'.

So it is unique throughout the xml document (only one node has the id
generated_id)

I think i've confused matters by using the WORD generated_id; try
substituting lala or test or biscuit
