Re: generating <a href="#section"> menus. Related to <

    :I prefer descriptive ids/anchors:
    :
    :Instead of
    :http://author.handalak.com/xml/about.xml#sect_II
    :I'd do s.th. like
    :http://author.handalak.com/xml/about.xml#whatisxmlandxsl

That's what the first revision did. If you open the .xml file source (by appending ?source=1 to the url) you will see that I assigned "id" to each <sect>. I didn't like assigning ids manually,

so I thought there had to be an easier way, and guess what, there was
:-).

Yes.
I am generating the descriptive IDs from the section titles:

  <t:template name="toc" xml:space="preserve">
    <div id="tocunit">
    <h2>
      <a id="toc" name="toc">
        <acronym title="Table Of Contents">TOC</acronym> (this page):
      </a>
    </h2>
    <ul title="toc" class="inline">
      <li class="skipNavigation">
        <a href="#main">To Content</a>,
      </li>
      <t:for-each select="//sect1" xml:space="default">
        <li>
          <a>
            <t:attribute name="href">
              <t:text>#</t:text>
              <t:call-template name="clean">
                <t:with-param name="input" select="title"/>
              </t:call-template>
            </t:attribute>
            <t:value-of select="title"/>
          </a>
          <t:if test="following::sect1">
            <t:text>, </t:text>
          </t:if>
        </li>
        <t:text>&#xA;</t:text>
      </t:for-each>
    </ul>
    </div>
  </t:template>
