Hi Eliot, > The use of generate-id() is simply a test that this is happening: > generate-id() lets me test node (object) identity in the context of > XSLT processing. The generated IDs would also let you get to the node you were after, if you defined a key that indexed nodes by their generated ID: <xsl:key name="generated-id" match="node()|@*" use="generate-id()" /> If you had your resolve-xpointer template returning a result tree fragment of 'node' elements for the value of the $members variable, you could use: key('generated-id', exsl:node-set($members)/node) to get your list of the actual nodes themselves. It's quite a large key table, though (!) which is why using an extension function to return the nodes themselves is possibly a cleaner way to do it.
