Re: cross document id idref pair checks

Oh well if you are not using DTD defined ids then you are not subject to
the "same document" constraint so you don't need the for-each to change
the current document.

Also it's always better to use self:: if possible rather than name() 

<xsl:variable name="ref" select="substring-after(@href,'#')"/>
<xsl:variable name="smil-file-el" 
  select="document(@href)/smil/body//*[@id=$ref]"/>
<xsl:variable name="lineNo" select="saxon:lineNumber()"/>
<xsl:for-each select="$smil-file-el">
  <xsl:if test="not(name()='par' or name()='text')">
TN 76: Line <xsl:value-of select="$lineNo"/>.  <xsl:value-of
select="$msg/TN76"/></xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>

is probably (untested)

<xsl:if test=
  "not(document(@href)/smil/body//*
          [@id="substring-after(current()/@href,'#')]
          [self::par or self::text]')">
TN 76: Line <xsl:value-of select="saxon:lineNumber()"/>.  <xsl:value-of
select="$msg/TN76"/>
