Selecting and "id"


Can someone please tell me why I cannot get the following to work.   I am 
trying to select the id number for specific element.

<!-- XML -->

<AAA>
     <BBB id = "11" >B1 </BBB>
     <BBB id = "22" >B2 </BBB>
     <BBB id = "33" >B3 </BBB>
</AAA>

<!-- XSL -->

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl = "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version = 
"1.0" >


          <xsl:template match = "/" >
               <xsl:value-of select = "id('33')" />
          </xsl:template>
     </xsl:stylesheet>

I get an error that reads:

"This name may not begin with the '3' character:"


I want to talk to/read all elements that have an id of 33.  In this case, of 
course there is only one.
