RE: Function id() does not work XSLT - XML - XML-Schem

XSLT 1.0 isn't defined to work with XML Schema. An implementation could
mark the ID attributes as such, but there is no particular reason why it
should.

If you can't define them as IDs in a DTD, the best thing is probably to
use xsl:key to find them.
