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
:-).

Well, hypothetically you could use the value of your <title> tag as the name. You're likely to get "invalid" characters in there, though I think most browsers deal with most characters OK. Maybe you could process the title by removing spaces, and any punctuation.
