RE: internal linking between separate page-sequences
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" http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";> Something Link: Key Questions Something else Destination: Key Questions
RE: internal linking between separate page-sequences
the id attribute must be unique throughout the entire xml document. When you are using generate-id() in xslt the id generated relates to the node in the source tree, not the result tree. If you are attempting to use generate-id() in xsl:fo, it will not work, remember that xsl:fo is a presentation language and does not have any functional capabilities...if you type 'generate-id()' in the source, it is a literal value.

internal linking between separate page-sequences
i'm currently trying to output a PDF using a style sheet with a single master page and a number of page-sequences (i'm using numerous page sequences because i want to display different information in the page footer depending upon the section). i also want to include a toc on the first page-sequence set which will link to the relevant page-sequence. however when i try to convert this it complains that "The id 'generated_id' already exists in this document". Its fine if i want to link within a page-sequence but seems to get confused with links between page-sequences. Included is a simplified version of the fop input file. any help much appreciated... http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";> Something Link: Key Questions Something else Destination: Key Questions the message i get is: C:\Java\Fop-0.20.1>java -cp build\fop.jar;lib\batik.jar;lib\xalan-2.0.0.jar;lib\ xerces-1.2.3.jar;lib\jimi-1.0.jar org.apache.fop.apps.Fop -fo ..\Working\Out\Out .xml -pdf ..\Working\Pdf\Out.pdf FOP 0.20.1 using SAX parser org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser building formatting object tree setting up fonts [1] [2ERROR: The id "generated_id" already exists in this document Michael Smethurst Web Developer Sweet and Maxwell Group
