Robert,
If I understand you correctly, you don't need to.
generate-id() will always give the same value for a given node on a given
run of a stylesheet. The key is unnecessary -- just access generate-id() again.
Cheers,
Wendell

Is there a way to generate unique IDs for each node in an XML document and
then when you match that node can you retrieve the key's value (the UID)?
For example:
<xsl:key name="allnodes" match="*" use="generate-id()"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<style type="text/css">
<xsl:apply-templates mode="x"/>
</style>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="y"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*" mode="x">
<xsl:variable name="this.nodes.key" select="???"/>
#<xsl:value-of select="$this.nodes.key"/> {yadayada}
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*" mode="y">
<xsl:variable name="this.nodes.key" select="???"/>
<div id="{$this.nodes.key}">
whatever
</div>
</xsl:template>
Thanks
