I tend to avoid generate-id() for this as it makes recreating the same ids if the source is edited (or even if it is not) very hard, which means people#s bookmarks get messed up if you regenerte. One fairly robust way is to go <xsl:attribute name="id"> <xsl:text>id.</xsl:text> <xsl:number count="*" level="multiple"/> </xsl:attribute/> which makes ids of the form id="id.5.1.4.2" obviously there is some flexibility on the attributes to xsl:number, so that for example you can use the same numbering as sections if you want, so section 3.5 gets an id of sect.3.5.
